Can anyone help

Post #1by Seth » 31.01.2003, 19:32

While installing Celestia when I gave the make command I recieved this error:

g++: /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [celestia] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/what/celestia/celestia-1.2.5/src/celestia'
make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/what/celestia/celestia-1.2.5/src/celestia'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/what/celestia/celestia-1.2.5/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/what/celestia/celestia-1.2.5'
make: *** [all] Error

I do have that directory except it's a symbolic.
This is where it goes to libGL.so -> libGL.so.1.2.
I have the latest drivers from NVIDIA and I think that link is for those drivers. Can anyone help, thanks!

Are you sure it's symlinked correctly? Remember that Unix filesystems are case-sensitive. What output do you get if you type into a shell:
ls -al /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
if it's there and points to another file, then make sure that file exists and is spelled properly. Hope this helps.
