But you should have the symlink /usr/X11R6/include/GL/glext.h, that gets created when you do "opengl-update xfree" (or "opengl-update nvidia" ...). what happens when you run one of those commands?
Ah... my bad. I never mess around with opengl (other than keeping it updated) and didn't know that's what this was for. RTFS, huh? I'll close this bug as a BUE ("Brainless User Error"). Thanks
