Dear people,
im trying to install plib-1.6.0 on my linux(SUSE 7.2) box. but the
./configure- script always exits with the message
checking for GL/gl.h... yes
checking for GL/glut.h... no
configure: error: GLUT header file not found
but: glut.h sits next to gl.h, in /usr/include/GL/.
(i believe this is the file from the "mesaglut-devel"-package which i have
installed.)
i had the same problem with gl.h, but this could be resolved by copying a
"gl.h" file from an nvidia driver package (1541), which i (or the great linux
directory goddess called "make install") installed in a somewhat strange
place ( /usr/share/doc/packages/andsoon/...).
hoping to address the right people, i would like to ask the following two
questions:
1. what can i do to get things to work?
2. theoretically interesting: why doesnt ./configure find glut.h, when it
finds gl.h and these two files are in the same directory?
thank you in advance for your help. i think my question is a little trivial,
but i am quite unexperienced with those directory-package dependency-affairs.
