Description Andreas Volz 2006-04-04 10:17:07 UTC

The package contains some libraries for GLUT:

/opt/xmingw/i386-mingw32msvc/lib/libglut.a
/opt/xmingw/i386-mingw32msvc/lib/libglut32.a

But there're no header files for GLUT in this package. It works if I copy the default GLUT header files into /opt/xmingw/i386-mingw32msvc/include.

Perhaps this problem should be reported upstream to the mingw project. I'm not sure about this. Do you accept an patch with this missing header file? Or do you suggest to remove the libglut[32].a and put GLUT (or freeglut) in another xmingw-* package?

xming has been integrated into toolchain and the xmingw packages are being killed

`emerge crossdev && crossdev mingw32`
