This bug was fixed in the package mesa - 7.7-0ubuntu5

---------------
mesa (7.7-0ubuntu5) lucid; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - Remove invalid "install -d" command.
    - Do not pass --libdir=/usr/lib/mesa flag any more.
  * debian/libgl1-mesa-dev.install, libgl1-mesa-swx11-dev.install,
    libgl1-mesa-swx11.install, libglu1-mesa-dev.install,
    libglu1-mesa.install:
    - Install *.pc files in /usr/lib/pkgconfig instead of
      /usr/lib/mesa/pkgconfig.
    - Do not Install libGLU* in /usr/lib/mesa (LP: #506547).
  * debian/libglu1-mesa-dev.links:
    - Remove file as we install libGLU in the right place now.

I've got this installed, and things like the GL screen savers work, but "raise on rotate" is still not active with compiz, even though I have it enabled via CSM. Any clue, other than my opening a report specifically for that issue?

The real change effecting comment #3 was that compiz-fusion-plugins-extra is no longer installed by default. Just a note in case someone finds my comment via Google, and wants the solution.
