/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL

Hello,

I'm testing BlitzMax under Ubuntu 7.04 - Feisty Fawn
When i try to build any example under MaxIDE. I get the following
error messages ...

---
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL
collect2: ld devolvió el estado de salida 1

You're missing one of the packages/libraries you need to download. Check the installation guides at the top of this forum, as I'm not sure which one you're missing to give you this error.

Hello,

I think the problem must be related with OpenGL. I checked all packgages needed and I think everything it's installed.

Also I get another error messages when I try to rebuild all modules ...

Thank you very much,

Try to install (from synaptic) libglu1-mesa-dev.

ok.

Now works fine.
libglu1-mesa-dev was missing

Thanks
