Has libglitz been removed from SLE-12?

On SLE11 it was found on SDK but I have no clue where to find it with the numerous “Modules” repo’s split.

Hi  
The only package I see in SLES 11 SP4 (SDK) is glitz (someone installed  
a foreign rpm?), by the looks it’s been dropped from SLE 12, I would  
guess the alternative is cario these days…

Thanks for your feedback Malcolm,

In fact the glitz RPM you’ve found is indeed the one providing libglitz (you can rpm -qpl on it). As the latest RPM build date dates back from 2009, I’d guess that it has been dropped as well (though I am yet to find a confirmation on that)
