Errors at the end of install scripts...black magic?

Post by Coladicooka »

Hi there, After the install script broke off with a nogo, I found out after doing a manual "configure" in the vegastrike dir, the configure script seemed not to like my libGLUT
and OpenGL libs:

checking for GL library... no
checking for GL library (with pthreads)... no
checking for MesaGL library... no
checking for MesaGL library (with pthreads)... no
checking for opengl32 library... no
checking for opengl32 library (with pthreads)... no
*** Hmm, you don't seem to have OpenGL libraries installed in the standard
*** location (/usr/lib). I'll check in /usr/X11R6/lib, since
*** many distributions (incorrectly) put OpenGL libs there.
checking for GL library... yes
checking for glXGetProcAddressARB... yes
checking for GLU library... no
checking for GLU library (with pthreads)... no
checking for MesaGLU library... no
checking for MesaGLU library (with pthreads)... no
checking for openglu32 library... no
checking for openglu32 library (with pthreads)... no
*** Hmm, you don't seem to have OpenGLU libraries installed in the standard
*** location (/usr/lib). I'll check in /usr/X11R6/lib, since
*** many distributions (incorrectly) put OpenGLU libs there.
checking for GLU library... no
checking for GLU library (with pthreads)... no
checking for MesaGLU library... no
checking for MesaGLU library (with pthreads)... no
checking for openglu32 library... no
checking for openglu32 library (with pthreads)... no
configure: error: Cannot find GLU library

Unfortunately, I'm dead in the water as I downloaded the binaries from dri.sf.net and put them in their respective right directories:

* /usr/include/glut.h
* /usr/lib/libglut.so.3.7.0
* /usr/include/GL/glu.h
* /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1.2

I ran the install script of dri.sf.net and followed their manual carefully. dri is working; glxinfo and glxgears work fine at 500 fps....

Is there something else I should download or install that I don't know of?
Cheers!
