Well people,
It looks like XFree86 has (once again) decided to break more GL
programs by including their own version of include/GL/glu.h (I
still don't understand why they can't just include the entire
!%!@$%^@#$ MesaGL implementation instead of just *part* of it).
I ran into the problem when I tried to compile Alex's new
games/tuxkart program. This situation is completely unacceptable
and so I feel we must take a more drastic approach:
1) Turn graphics/Mesa3 into a master port, and create a new
graphics/libglut, for which only include/GL/glu*.h and its
associated files will be compiled. It will be a slave of
graphics/Mesa3 and will exist to help provide packages for
XFree86-4.
2) Make x11/XFree86-4{,-*} depend on libglut, and dike out any
files from it that conflict with libglut.
Comments? I think I'm going to stuff this into updating
x11/XFree86-4-* along with turning x11/XFree86-4 into a metaport.
I'll check for incompatible changes in the fork that XFree86
decided to create of MesaGL{UT}. *sigh*
