I have seen others with similar problems (I had it on another machine

but that does not seem to be the case here:

what to recompile with -fPIC?

libGL.a :(

if that is really the problem?

The main problem is that you have a static libGL rather than a shared
libGL. The GRASS build system tends to assume that all external libraries
are shared libraries (unless building with --disable-shared, in which
case either will work).

You can probably work around it by removing $(OPENGLLIB) $(OPENGLULIB)
from the definition of EXTRA_LIBS in lib/ogsf/Makefile, and adding them either to the definition of OGSFLIB in include/Make/Grass.make[.in] or to
the individual Makefiles (primarily, visualization/nviz/src/Makefile).

Actually, the NVIZ Makefile adds these explicitly, and r3.showdspf is no
longer compiled, so simply removing them from lib/ogsf/Makefile will
probably suffice.

Glynn,

thank you for your help - removing $(OPENGLLIB) $(OPENGLULIB) from
the ogsf/Makefile solved the ogsf compilation problem.

The nviz compilation still gives a related error:

Errors in:

thanks you

Helena

Ideally, external shared libraries would be linked into the library while external static libraries would be linked into each module which uses the
library. But I have no idea how to tell whether an external library is
shared or static; configure just checks whether adding "-l<library>"
works.
