A while back, we split off GLw into a separate repository. The
rationale was that GLw should be maintained and released independently
from Mesa/Gallium since it hardly ever changes and isn't closely tied to
the core GL and drivers.
I'd like to do the same for libGLU. I've split it out, created an new
autotools build system, and uploaded a repository here:
git://people.freedesktop.org/~kwg/glu
It has all the history except for some old build system vestiges, which
filter-branch ate when I moved files from src/glu to the top-level
directory. I doubt anyone cares about those, since you obviously
couldn't use the old build system anyway.
I made the installed library libGLU.so.1.3.1, as this ought to be
compatible with existing binaries.
If this sounds good to everyone, we can create an official /mesa/glu
repo and I can go ahead and remove it from the Mesa tree. We'll also
want to cut a glu release (though it could possibly wait until Mesa 8.1.)
One concern I have is that libGLU in Mesa appears to have some build
system magic for linking against OSMesa instead of libGL. With the new
system, I think you would need "pkg-config --libs --cflags gl" to report
OSMesa. I'm not sure whether that's an issue or not.
