[GRASSLIST:4741] Re: opengl compile problem

[Richard Greenwood]

Many thanks to Glynn Clements, Eric Miller, and Scott O'Donnell for their 
help!

Summary: GRASS 5.0.0 failed to 'configure' with Mesa 4.0.4 under Mandrake 
9.0. The problem was that my libGLU somehow got built as a C++ library. The 
solution, quoted from Glynn's email, is as follows:
