I have built this rpm (-9.mdk with _major_ modifications to the
Mandrake screwed specfile). The obvious question here is - do you need
glide? Are you using a 3dfx card (which is the only thing that uses
glide)? If you don't have a 3dfx card, then by all means, take the
portions out of the spec file that contain these references! This is what
I did simply because I have no 3dfx card. If you need to know the lines
to remove, I'd be glad to mail you my specfile; if you need glide, then
all the above is moot. :)
