[gentoo-user] opengl: missing symlink target for header

[Nicolas Sebrecht]

  Hi guys,

If you have mesa and eselect-opengl-1.3.X installed, could you please
tell me if the symlink /usr/include/GL/glext.h is broken for you?

Thanks,

All OK here, but it's not a symlink, it's a regular file:


alan@khamul ~ $ ls -al /usr/include/GL/glext.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 772250 Feb  7 13:08 /usr/include/GL/glext.h


alan@khamul ~ $ eix select-opengl

Like Alan, I have a regular file and not a symlink.  The file was installed
by mesa-10.4.4

IIUC, the only reason to install eselect-opengl is if you also install a
package that installs modified/customized mesa libraries, e.g.nvidia-drivers
or ati-drivers.  Maybe you use such a package that created the symlink?
