On debian libglut is provided by freeglut, which seems to lack some functionality - at runtime I get a glut message "Assertion fsState.Initialised failed" or something along those lines.
Now as debian doesn't provide the glut I need, I grabbed it myself http://www.opengl.org/resources/librari ... loads.html
Download the latest (3.7) and read the instructions in linux/README for building. Don't install the libraries (you never know where they might end up, but it should be /usr/local/lib/). I was planning on using LD_PRELOAD, and presto - the README covers that too!
Now, before running VS, do,
~$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/src/glut-3.7/lib/glut
~$ vegastrike
Problem solved!
Now, off to play some VS - I'll create an account later
VS on Debian unstable - runtime problems - fixed
