Default way conflicts with all 3 spells. And all they need to do is read
the notice that the tool prints each and every time it get' executed
detailing exactly the changes made and how to manage it manually.

Upstream default conflicts with both mesalib and xorg-server this solves
that problem.

It's well documented on each run of the tool:
You can manage the libGL providers at runtime by using
either smgl-gl_select or manually by symlinking the files
from their respective directories i.e.:
/usr/lib/[nvidia|ati|mesa]/libGL.so
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/[nvidia,ati,mesa]/lib{glx,dri}.so
/usr/include/GL/[nvidia|ati|mesa]/gl{x,xext,ext}.h
To:
/usr/lib/libGL.so
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/lib{glx,dri}.so
/usr/include/GL/gl{x,xext,ext}.h
