Well, no, I'm not going to handle this, because glext.h is _not_ part of my OpenGL package. As a "Setup Package Search" reveals: usr/include/GL/glext.h is part of libGL-devel-7.2-2 usr/include/w32api/GL/glext.h is part of w32api/w32api-3.13-1, w32api/w32api-3.12-1, w32api/w32api-3.11-1 So, it will be up to the maintainers of w32api and/or libGL-devel.
I understand your confusion. For the record, here's a few facts about OpenGL and Cygwin: 1- There is no (and there never was any) Win32 implementation of OpenGL for Cygwin. M$'s implementation, supplemented by the graphic drivers for hardware accceleration, is used. 2- The Cygwin packages provide only headers and import libraries to this implementation. First, they were provided by the OpenGL package. Then, the w32api package started to provide them too, so I droped them from the OpenGL package. 3- Cygwin's X server provides a software only (no hardware acceleration) implementation of OpenGL. 4- The headers and import libraries to this implementation are provided by the libGL-devel package. 5- The OpenGL package now only provides OpenGL-related librairies: GLUT and GLUI (native Win32 implementation). 6- The OpenGL package has reached the end of its life. As you stated, GLUT is unmaintained since 2001, and GLUI is fading away too. 7- Before 2010 (I hope!), the OpenGL package will be obsoleted and replaced by 3 new packages: FreeGLUT-native: A Cygwin 1.7, gcc 4 replacement for GLUT32.dll. FreeGLUT-native-devel: Corresponding headers and import libraries. GLUI-native: A Cygwin 1.7, gcc 4 replacement for the static libGLUI.a 8- For this to happen, I need: 8a- A stable gcc 4 8b- A Cygwin 1.7, gcc 4, w32api package 8c- Continue working with the FreeGLUT maintainers to get FreeGLUT native build for Cygwin. I hope that the above will clarify things for you (and others). - André Bleau, Cygwin's volunteer OpenGL package maintainer.
