_______________________________________________________
Details:
On fedora 23 there are packages which cause the tests
in ./configure to fail to find the libraries required for
OpenGL-based plotting. It took me a number of experiments
to find the "guilty" package(s). The test that failed first
was: _XGetRequest not found.
After removing a number of packages this was resolved, but then
the failure was:
checking for glEnable in -lGL... no
(this had previously passed)
Finally, removing :
dnf remove libNX_X11.x86_64 libNX_X11-devel.x86_64
caused ./configure to succeed.
I know that this is not a precise report, but it would be
useful if the test could be improved so that less trial and error
is required in order to find the set of packages that are
actually required (and those that break the build).
It may not be possible to develop a fully robust set of tests,
but it might be good to include in the installation instructions
an indication that there are package conflicts.
