While trying to install the OpenGL package with CPAN I get an error that it cannot find -lGLUT, -lGLX, -lMesaGLX, -lMesaGLUT, or -lXIE I'm not sure how to resolve this problem. It says it can't find the library libGLUT, however glut is installed and /usr/lib/libglut.so exists. I think it might be a capitalization issue- when created a symbolic link from /usr/lib/libGLUT.so -> /usr/lib/libglut.so that error went away(or so I think), but the others remained. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.su - 2.cpan -i OpenGL 3.

This isn't a gentoo bug. By the poster's own comments, this happens while running the CPAN module. The bug should be filed on rt with the author of the opengl module. OpenGL is not in the gentoo dev-perl tree.
Upstream issue, not a "Can't fix", but there is long a dev-perl/OpenGL in tree, which, should work.
