Re: [Mesa3d-users] Installing Mesa with new GLUT

[matt <ma...@vi...>]

On the linux distib of mesa that comes with redhat I just removed 
/usr/X11R6/include/GL/glut.h
/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.la
/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so.3
/usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so.3.7.0  

and rebuilt glut from the new distrib.  It worked fine.  So i'd suggest just
installing it default then removing it and install your later version.  If at
any stage you want to upgrade mesa, then use the --with-glut to preserve your
nice new glut from being stomped.
