Hi all.

I'm running through an Xorg-7.4 build, but have hit a problem.  Firstly, there's
a slight inconsistency:

The Xorg Apps page says that MesaGlut is recommended. But, visiting the MesaGlut
page suggests that FreeGlut is recommended, due to licensing issues with
MesaGlut.

Now, FreeGlut states that it is dependent on the entire 'X Window System', but
that won't be completed for some 7 packages (plus deps), which includes the 
apps,
fonts, and drivers, all fairly substantially sized.

Ignoring that advice completely (hey, it's my distro, I get to keep all the
broken pieces!), I decided to compile it immediately after xbitmaps-1.0.1. This
results in:

error: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory
error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory
error: GL/glx.h: No such file or directory

Does anyone have any info on what, exactly, Freeglut requires?  My initial
googling suggests that Xorg Drivers will provide GL/gl*.h, but does that then
mean I need to rebuild the whole lot again, or just the Xorg Apps?

Thanks,

Matt.
