[Plib-users] Building problem

[Dan W <dan...@gm...>]

Hello, I tried to follow the build from source instructions.  I'm in Ubuntu
24.04 with the MATE window manager, and my hardware is Ryzen 5 7600, using
internal gpu for now.
I have the libglut3.12, libglut-dev as well as all of the mesa packages, as
well as freeglut3-dev packages installed, but when I run ./configure I get
"error, could not find working GL library".
Here's the full output:
