Re: [Mesa3d-users] mesa and linux

Hello Simon,
	AFAIK, makefiles usually fail when they cannot
find the location of the header files or libraries.
When you are refering to a script, I assume you are refering
to the 'autoconf' script to create makefiles for applications.
If you are interested in autoconf, try 'info autoconf' or
get the documentation from the package.

If, instead you want to make an application just compile with
hardcoded settings, just giving the correct path for the
header files and the libraries are enough.
