I did some research and found that Debian started (or at least
investigated) a transition for the next version of this package. This
means that they rebuild all packages which depend on GLEW (either
directly or indirectly) to make sure they still work after the upgrade.
Though they are currently in a freeze preparing for their next release,
so it looks like transitions has been put on hold for a while. See
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=760849 or
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-glew.html for more
information.
