The file exists in that package, so it seems to me the problem is on
your workstation, rather than in the package.  I suggest you just
reinstall the package in question.  You may also want to use cruft(8) to
find out if any other files have gone missing, and run a fsck over your
root partition.

$ aptitude download -t unstable libgl1-mesa-dev
[...]
Get:1 http://mirror.internode.on.net unstable/main libgl1-mesa-dev 7.4-2
$ dpkg -x libgl1-mesa-dev_7.4-2_all.deb .
$ find -name \*.so -ls
