[GRASS5] OpenGL GL/gl.h not found and fftw

Use 'apt-file search gl.h' to find what package it comes from:

Are the xlibmesa-gl-dev and xlibmesa-glu-dev packages installed?


GRASS 5.7 config for Debian:

get latest CVS version of GRASS 5.3
get latest CVS version of GRASS 5.7

CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -Wall" ./configure \
    --with-grass50=/usr/src/grass/grass53 \
    --with-tcltk-includes=/usr/include/tcl8.3 \
    --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/postgresql \
    --with-motif --with-motif-includes=/usr/X11R6/include \
    --with-readline --with-gdal --with-cxx --with-glw \
    --with-freetype --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \
    2>&1 | tee config_log.txt

make mix
make

To run GRASS 5.7, simply start
./bin.$ARCH/grass57

You can now use the GDAL and PROJ packages from Debian to compile GRASS.

"Description: Library for computing Fast Fourier Transforms
 This library computes FFTs in one or more dimensions. It
 is extremely fast."

used in imagery modules, e.g. i.fft
