Can't seem to get past this error on Ubuntu 8.04.1 despite installing a lot of packages. Can anyone tell me what specific packages are required, or give me a hint as to what is causing this error? ================================================================================ WARNING: Development libraries and headers ("-dev") of {openGL, GLU, glut} needed! The GL, GLU and glut libraries are required in order to build the graphical parts of the BOINC application API library. ==> only building non-graphical parts of the BOINC API Library for now. HINT: on MacOS X/Darwin you might consider running configure with the option './configure --with-apple-opengl-framework' in order to use the Mac-native openGL framework ================================================================================ ID: 21235 ·  |

What are you trying to build? Kathryn :o) ID: 21242 · |

Everything basically. Trying to set up test environment. I guess I don't really need the GUI components, but the build error was annoying and I want to be able to show some other students how to build the client (w/gui interface) on ubuntu. Bill wmsedgar@gmail.com ID: 21279 · |

Do you have the dev packages? I'm a Fedora person, so I don't know how apt-get really works. Can you search for packages? Like I would do `yum search glut` (or whatever) and then find and install the dev packages. Kathryn :o) ID: 21293 · |

I'm pretty sure I had to grab the freeglut-dev package as well. Kathryn :o) ID: 21305 · |

I already had libglut3 and libglut3-dev installed, there isn't a libglu package (dev or otherwise published for Ubuntu). I also had glut3-dev, freeglut3-dev, and freeglut installed. I did see these additional packages which I downloaded and installed: libgle3-dev glutg3 libgtkglext1-dev (which had a ton of other package dependencies which were also downloaded and installed) I tried re-running configure after each and libgtkglext1-dev seemed to do the trick. So, in case anyone is interested, on Ubuntu 8.04.01, I had to install all of these additional openGL, GLUT, and GLU related libraries in order to build the GUI parts of the BOINC application API library: compiz-dev glutg3-dev libglui-dev libglut3-dev libgle3-dev glutg3 glutg3-dev libgtkglext1-dev I'm not really sure if all are required, but that's what worked for me.
