Re: Cannot find GL lib



Martin,

Pretty sure you nailed it.  Looked at the webpage, and the error in the config.log file was exactly what was written on this page.  Now to fix it.  Of course, the example given on the page you sent is very simplistic, and figuring out how to add the "extra contortions" to a configure file that is ~27000 lines long without breaking something else will certainly be beyond me.  But it is broken anyway, so I will try for fun.  Thanks for the information.  If anyone reads the last few lines and says to themselves, "hey dummy you aren't supposed to modify the configuration file you are supposed to modify the XXXX file!"  please let me know.

Where to look: In the file "config.log" that sits beside the configure script.

Probable cause of the error: An infamous bug (or "improvement" according to Apple) in /usr/bin/ld that prevents linking to /usr/X11/lib/libGL.dylib without extra contortions. See
