[Plib-users] Having trouble with ./compile

[Martin L. M. <exa...@ba...>]

Hi!
  I've been trying to get PLIB to ./compile and make for nearly a 
month, off and on, with the following problem:  on ./compiling, I'm 
told that PLIB can't find any GL commands or GLU/GLUT commands, but I 
can't find GLUT and FreeGLUT won't install either.  This is actually a 
step forward, however, because I had to track down and compile from 
scratch all the newest versions and libs of GCC/Glibc just to get to 
this point... and that's wreacked havoc on my system in and of itself, 
but that's another story.
  Now, when I try to make from my compile, it gets as far as making 
pui, then pops up an error saying that it can't find glx.h, gl.h, or 
glu.h.  I assume this means that various OpenGL includes are not 
around, but I know I have the latest Mesa or OpenGL, 'cause my Mandrake 
update disk has all the newest drivers on it.  Do I need to track down 
GLUT, or is this another problem?
  I'm looking forward to finally getting this library installed so I 
can try my hand at some flight simming on Linux :)
  Thanks for your help,
Martin
