The automatic reply was not to the point.
If I look to the debian packages, the versioned library is installed under /usr/lib. This is not the case in ubuntu lucid. There only libGL.so is installed, not libGL.so.1
compare eg:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/libgl1-mesa-swx11/filelist
or
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/amd64/libgl1-mesa-swx11/filelist
and
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/amd64/libgl1-mesa-swx11/filelist

even the package description is: "On Linux, this library is also known as libGL or **libGL.so.1**.
Many programs (eg Google Earth) expect this version in /usr/lib

** Tags removed: needs-lspci-vvnn needs-xorglog

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: ia32-libs
- 
- The only link provided under /usr/lib32 is:
- /usr/lib32/libGL.so
- I think /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1 and .1.2 should also be provided under /usr/lib32 (and not only under /usr/lib32/mesa).
+ In the current lucid package libGL.so.1 is no longer installed under /usr/lib
+ Many programs are built against this versioned library, and the versioned library is available in debian and in ubuntu karmic.

** Summary changed:

- no versioned library symlinks provided for libGL
+ no versioned library symlinks provided for libGL in /usr/lib

-- 
no versioned library symlinks provided for libGL in /usr/lib
