[Visualpython-users] Debian installation: gtkglarea is required on Unix-like systems

[<Ole...@ga...>]

Hi there
=20
I am having problems installing VPython on several debian boxes ('woody'
as wells as 'testing').
I have successfully installed:
=20
  gtkglarea5-dev=20
  python2.2-numeric
  python2.2-dev=20
  gtk+ 1.2
  xlibmesa3 =20
  pkg-config =20
=20
and their dependencies.
I even succeeded in installing python-gtkglarea, python-opengl and
python-gtk so something must be working.
=20
However, when running
=20
  ./configure=20
=20
from the installation directory I get the following error:
=20
---------------------------------------------------------
... (snip)
checking for gthread >=3D 1.0... yes
checking GTHREAD_CFLAGS... -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/include/glib-1.2
-I/usr/lib/glib/include =20
checking GTHREAD_LIBS... -lgthread -lpthread -lglib =20
checking GL... no
checking GL with threads... no
checking Mesa... no
checking Mesa with pthreads... no
configure: error: gtkglarea is required on Unix-like systems
--------------------------------------------------------
=20
but I have xlibmesa3=3D4.2.0=3D0prev1v3 and gtkglarea5=3D1.2.3-1 =
installed.
=20
Can anyone help me out here?
=20
Cheers
Ole
