MIssing GLU library - jaddin - 10-13-2005
Thanks for the reply. I exchanged those lines in the file but sadly, no change. It fails during the check for the library at the very start of the process. The path the libGLU.so is /usr/X11R6/lib on my system.==Edited==I noticed today that, though the correct path IS in ls.so.conf, when I type 'ld -lGLU' in the console, it reports that the library isn't found. But when I type 'ld -lGLU /usr/X11R6/lib', it does find it!? (tried to run ldconfig again just to make sure)So as a novice work-around, I renamed the ld executable and made a script named ld which links to it and always adds that path to the command. It worked! Wish I knew what was so quirky with that particular library though.
