Hello Brandon, Maybe this is a bug in the configure script of Haskell OpenGL or GLUT packages? Any suggestion from the package maintainers (or someone more familiar with these packages)? Thanks! :) __ Donnie On Sat, Sep 20, 2008 at 10:13 PM, Brandon S. Allbery KF8NH < allbery@ece.cmu.edu> wrote:

I'm not sure why I must specify "-package GLUT" and "-lglut" but that prevents the linker errors. Also, shouldn't configure correctly figure out how to link the GLUT libraries? Can someone explain?

You're overriding the information recorded by ghc-pkg (which is used if you use ghc --make).

As for why configure doesn't work, I think you'd have to let someone who knows the HOpenGL build stuff look at your system.
