How about posting the "lots of error" that you're getting, and saying something about the version/distro of Linux you're using?

And the gl.pc problem was addressed in one of your other threads:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...lation-781674/

So either you didn't install it, or didn't follow the instructions, on the link someone else had to look up for you.

The Ubuntu package, we talked about was libgl1-mesa-dev
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libgl1-mesa-dev
.. which includes the file ' gl.pc '.

The patch is [mesa_7.6.0-1ubuntu4.diff.gz]

Code:

grep "gl.pc" mesa_7.6.0-1ubuntu4.diff
+    mesa: always build libglapi.a, updated subdir, gl.pc rule code from master
+    installing a standalone OSMesa where neither libGL or gl.pc are wanted.
+  * Add gl.pc to libgl1-mesa-dev
+usr/lib/pkgconfig/gl.pc

So the file ' gl.pc ' is created by building
the "ubuntu .deb" package. ?

Suggest : plug it out of the package
http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...untu4_i386.deb
> > libgl1-mesa-dev_7.6.0-1ubuntu4_i386.deb

mkdir <new-folder>
dpkg -x libgl1-mesa-dev_7.6.0-1ubuntu4_i386.deb <new-folder>/

Only Ubuntu has this file. No gl.pc in the Debian versions.

But you can use the Debian "arm" packages / all other files,
and then just copy gl.pc to your //pkgconfig ( after it has
been edited to use the right file locations.)

The arm packages .. [ etch ] [ lenny ] [ squeeze ] [ sid ]
