Re: Haksell, OpenGL on Windows configuration

Hi Mark,

When I was on Windows, I had to get the sources of the OpenGL and GLUT
packages add an "extra-libraries" line to each of OpenGL.buildinfo.in
GLUT.buildinfo.in.  Seems to be a bug in the recent library releases.  For
GLUT, I think I added

extra-libraries: glut32

I forget what the library name was for OpenGL.

To find out whether these extra-libraries are already listed, try the
following shell commands:

ghc-pkg describe OpenGL | grep extra
ghc-pkg describe GLUT | grep extra

I was completely stumped until Sigbjorn Finne suggested there might be
missing extra-libraries.
