Description:
The box2d packages depend on freeglut. However, freeglut is only used by Box2D when the examples are being built, which are not included in the distribution. Furthermore, Box2D is a library that has no inherent graphical features. As it is not unreasonable for Box2D to be installed on a server without any X installation, and given that the contents of the packages do not contain any references to glut at all, the freeglut dependency should be removed.

Additional info:
* package version: box2d-2.1.2-2

Steps to reproduce:
pacman -Qd box2d
