[wxhaskell-devel] darcs patch: Eliminate mandatory --with-opengl on Linux.

[Eric K. <eri...@gm...>]

This fixes a longstanding source of irritation for me.  With this patch, I
think users will no longer be required to compile --with-opengl (unless they
want to).  Hmm, maybe it's time to release a 0.10.3 on hackage so that
 cabal install wx
will 'just work' on Linux

  * Eliminate mandatory --with-opengl on Linux.
  
  If wxWidgets is compiled with opengl, its header files
   #define wxUSE_GLCANVAS 1
  
  (See, for example, /usr/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.6/wx/setup.h on
  Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon), which causes us to compile glcanvas as if we were going
  to link against the wxWidgets opengl library.  But since we are not linking
  against that, the user gets errors compiling their applications.
  
  Here we introduce an extra preprocessor flag to really insist that no, despite
  what wxWidgets says, we don't want to use GLCANVAS.
