Hi,

It is unclear to me whether this is your code or someone else's, and I am
not personally familiar with OSX. The usual culprit for
`NullFunctionError`s is the lack of an OpenGL context, but I don't think
`glutInit(...)` is one of the ones that requires (or indeed can succeed)
the creation of one. I confirm your assessment of other programmers: there
was some kind of bug with pip installs a while back. Given the simplicity
of the problem, I'd expect some kind of setup issue, although I certainly
don't know how to resolve it.

Anyway, if this is your code, I would suggest not using GLUT, or at-least
trying to reverse-engineer from a working sample. GLUT is ancient and
bad=E2=80=94although in-fairness (and to my distress) people regularly stil=
l do use
GLUT, in the face of better alternatives. If this is not your code, then
it's worth a bug report to whichever project it is.

Ian
