platform configure fails to find freeglut

I'm trying to install haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2 on OpenSuse 11.2 Gnu/Linux 2.6.27.39-0.2-default #1 SMP x86_64 My currently installed packages include ghc-6.10.4-5.7 freeglut-080721-20.2.1 ghc-GLUT-doc-2.1.2.0-1.13 ghc-GLUT-devel-2.1.2.0-1.13 ghc-GLUT-prof-2.1.2.0-1.13 When I try to ./configure I get checking GL/glut.h usability... no checking GL/glut.h presence... no checking for GL/glut.h... no configure: error: The GLUT C library is required One would think that with all of this good glut stuff I have installed the configure script would be satisfied, but it's not. Searching for answers only turned up other people with the same problem. Can someone assist me in fixing the problem? BTW - is there an official bug repository for the Haskell Platoform? I couldn't find that either, and I think it's very important! Thanks, _Greg P.S.

Yes, of course there's a bug tracker, linked from: http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/ http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/report/1

Google is telling me there's a freeglut-devel package; you probably want to install it. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
