                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -> exactly 3.4.1 required

Well, now it's interesting why the packages you wanted to install
explicitely wants MesaLib-3.4.1, I wonder if this is a buglet.

A workaround is using pkg_add -f e.g., and check out if the package
works with the installed MesaLib-3.4.2, too... or deinstalling MesaLib-3.4.2,
and reinstall 3.4.1 (although I guess this will break quite some dependancies,
eh ?). Here again it shows unsatisfactory to only be able to have one version
of a package installed at a time...
