[Mesa3d-users] libOSMesa.so linker errors

[Tess S. <ma...@te...>]

I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong place, or making some other
horrendous faux pas.  I am trying to test some source code that my sister
sent to me, and I'm getting a gazillion linker errors from libOSMesa.so,
when I link the app.  It's basically complaining about EVERYTHING:

/usr/lib/libOSMesa.so: undefined reference to `_swrast_copy_texsubimage1d'
/usr/lib/libOSMesa.so: undefined reference to `_swrast_copy_teximage2d'
/usr/lib/libOSMesa.so: undefined reference to `_swrast_choose_triangle'
/usr/lib/libOSMesa.so: undefined reference to `_mesa_test_proxy_teximage'
/usr/lib/libOSMesa.so: undefined reference to `_mesa_problem'
... etc. ad infinitum

The linker line looks like this:

g++ -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib -lOSMesa -lglut -lGLU -lGL demo_1.o -o

My OS is RedHat 8.0.  I am using the Mesa already installed, which, from a
quick rpm -qa|grep Mesa, appears to be 4.2.0.  glut and glut-devel are
3.7.  I am using an NVIDIA GForce 2 in the machine, in question.

Any ideas?  Did I do something totally daft?

Thanks, in advance!
