The Perl OpenGL module does build-time OpenGL
configuration and uses the output from the
glversion program to determine which OpenGL
features to compile perl bindings to.
A hack-around that should work would be
(1) Run the build manually on a redhat
system with an active display to
produce the needed utils/ glversion.txt
info file.
(2) Extract a clean copy of OpenGL-0.58 and
copy the above utils/glverson.txt file
into that OpenGL-0.58/utils.
(3) Edit Makefile.PL to comment out the line
unlinking a pre-existing utils/glversion.txt
file, line #752 or thereabouts.
(4) Now the configure and build should be
able to proceed using the offline generated
glversion.txt file.
Plans for the future include enabling a link-only
build capability for OpenGL and, eventually,
dynamic probing for valid OpenGL extensions for
binding.
Hope this helps,
