Everything is up to date - I barely started using this system.

vcpkg's opengl library was installed just before this.

I can run glxgears just fine. OpenGL is available; did not check for development headers yet but that would be most of vcpkg's job I think.

[dascandy]

After running sudo apt-get install libgl-dev it works. Seems to be a compile detail somewhere?

[dascandy]

Post-install though, glew.h is not includable, as the vcpkg config does not set GLEW_NO_GLU, and it does not install GLU either.

Thanks for the feedback!

Could you try dev/roschuma/4684 and see if that works a bit better?

• It should display a message indicating that you can apt install mesa-common-dev to get the opengl headers
• It should encode GLEW_NO_GLU into the installed header file

Unfortunately, we need to rely on the platform to provide an implementation of OpenGL because it can be tightly coupled to the overall system graphics stack.

The same occurred to me. Installing the freeglut port dependencies worked here. And yes, a display message indicating the working around would help a lot.
