I don't know the exact reason but this should not fail since I have
Debian packaged ghc 6.10.1 and OpenGL-2.2.1.1 on my system.
I think this is because the filename of the OpenGL shared library is
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 rather than libGL.so. This is why we have two
binary distributions for Linux because editline library has the same
naming issues in Debian. So, this may be Debian packaging problem of
OpenGL bindings.
But the interesting thing is that I was able to work around this in
Debian, by temporarily making a symbolic link libGL.so pointing to
libGL.so.1 and it hpong built successfully. Once it builds, hpong still
runs even if I delete the symbolic link libGL.so. So, there is also a
possibility that what may be wrong is with the build system (cabal or ghc).
Thanks in advance for related library packaging mangers and developers,
and here are the details of failure:
