Attempt to execute glxgears/glxinfo fails with "error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run glxgears / glxinfo

Actual Results:  
glxgears/glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
Execute glxgears benchmark/show glxinfo output

OpenGL working (fglrxinfo and fgl_fglxgears work correctly)

Temporarily solved by making a symlink to /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so as /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2

Could you try removing that symlink and re-emerging x11-apps/mesa-progs?
