[PyOpenGL-Users] GLUError or GLUerror

[Robert A. <rob...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm the maintainer for glChess in the gnome-games package and we're
having a problem with the name of the GLU error exception class on
Gentoo.

On my Ubuntu 7.10 box the following works:
>>> import OpenGL.GLU
>>> OpenGL.GLU.GLUError

but on Gentoo it fails, they expect:
>>> import OpenGL.GLU
>>> OpenGL.GLU.GLUerror

What is the correct name for the exception class?

Thanks,
--Robert

This was an unintentional incompatibility introduced during the 3.x 
rewrite.  I've added the GLUerror alias to PyOpenGL 3.x CVS and it 
should show up in the next beta release.

HTH,
Mike
