If you want playonlinux, then install it.
If you're not sure, then don't.
Your system works fine without it.

It is your responsibility. What is your concern? Those are Mesa libraries that are open source 3D graphic libraries. They are connected to the open source video driver, Nouveau which is installed on every Ubuntu installation even if we are using a proprietary video driver.

Will Playonlinux install if you reject the offer? If you are using a proprietary video driver you may not need them.

If your intent on installing PlayOnLinux is that you plan to use Wine, then BEFORE you do that, do yourself a favor, go to the linked Wine website and do searches for the apps and versions you want to use. Anything not found, or rated lower than Gold, is essentially going to be a waste of your time installing Wine to use: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&sTitle=Browse%20Applications&sOrderBy=appName&bAscending=true
