  Description     : Easy-to-use, high-level, OpenGL3+ wrapper.

Glium is an intermediate layer between OpenGL and your application. You
still need to manually handle the graphics pipeline, but without having
to use OpenGL's old and error-prone API.

I'm using it for developing an extension to libcamera downstream in
PureOS. Without default features, I don't need glutin (also missing from Debian). It's way simpler to use this compared to using the naked OpenGL APIs.
The other missing dependency (required) is genmesh.

I'm not skilled enough to maintain packages.
