I'm not a Linux user but I remember that gcc libraries should be specified in
dependency order. In the specific, plib fnt depends on OpenGL so specify GL
(and GLU as well, even if not strictly necessary) *after* fnt.

Before that, I'm not sure from your command line that the plib include directory
is in the include path. Still on gcc, as far as plib is in /usr/include, or
whatever in the default include directories, fnt.h is found, otherwise it will
not. To be sure yust specify it explicitly, i.e. -I/<plib-root-path>.
