While obstructed by the tricky installation of GLUT-3.7 in Linux (Fedora 13/14 in this post's case), an easy expedient is to indirectly install MesaLib since this package should have already included GLUT-3.7 and thus the desirable installation of GLUT-3.7 can be achieved tortuously by installing MesaLib through the source package building.
However, there might be still other problems with the building installation itself of MesaLib, here are several candidates:
1. before generating the makefile, "./configure" can complains that the version of libdrm_intel is lower than 2.4.21 which is required to compile mesa.
---> download the package of libdrm from http://packages.pardus.org.tr/
Unfortunately, the complaints did not disappear as most likely happens. This is a problem of package recognition previously encountered as the case of "http://surfingtroves.
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/
Then "pkg-config --modversion libdrm_intel" should confirm that the version is updated to suffice the installation of mesaLib.
2. "./configure" continues to grouches, but with missing of TALLOC this time. Fix it by installing libtalloc and libtalloc-devel using yum like above. and you should be able to get through it.
3. now, do the sure thing "make" , you are probably expected to get stymied again by the complaint like:
"error: I915_EXEC_BLT undeclared "
The is because the older version of the drm_intel library is still being used. Look at the compilation command line before this complaints, you can find "-I/usr/include/libdrm" therein. A simple fix is to copy the command line and manually compile again with "-I/usr/include/libdrm" changed to "-I/usr/local/include/libdrm" since drm_intel is installed to /usr/local by default.
4. "make install". And, done.
To check if GLUT-3.7 has been installed during the installation of mesaLib, look at /usr/local/lib/libglut* and /usr/local/include/GL/glut*.
Now you should be alreay there.

Wonderful work! That is the kind of information that should be shared around
the web. Shame on the search engines for no longer positioning
this submit upper! Come on over and discuss with my web site .
Thanks =)
