Aleph one make fails


when I try to install Aleph one from the source code ./configure runs fine but when I try make I get the following error

gcc -g -O2 -o gennmtab gennmtab.o -lSDL_sound -lSDL_net -lSDL_image -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lGL -lpthread -lGLU
/usr/lib/gcc/i486-slackware-linux/3.4.6/../../../../i486-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLU
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [gennmtab] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/Donavan/AlephOne-20061228/Source_Files/Expat'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/Donavan/AlephOne-20061228/Source_Files'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Donavan/AlephOne-20061228'
make: *** [all] Error 2

I would greatly appreciate any help you can give me but I am new at this so if I have to add a line to my makefile or something please be specific as to where to add it. If you need more information I will gladly post it.

Thanks

Hmmm ... install all the packages in the d directory, and re-install x11 and x11-devel. If they are installed they should be listed in /var/log/packages.

well I reinstalled all those packages but still no luck. I googled "cannot find -lGLU" and found some posts saying that the makefile is looking in the wrong place for the openGL libraries but I don't know what to change to get the makefile to look in the right place. Then again I may be looking up the wrong thing all together.

it might be ... is there a configure file ? you can add extra places to check for libs. Do './configure --help'
