As of version 0.8.0, configure.in no longer exists. It is replaced

Jon,
Try removing any compression option such a -z3 if you are using it. I
had a similar problem a few
SkyLight.cpp:202: cannot convert `int' to `GLenum' for argument `1' to
`glLightfv (GLenum, GLenum, const GLfloat *)'
SkyLight.cpp:203: cannot convert `int' to `GLenum' for argument `1' to
`glLightf (GLenum, GLenum, float)'
Hint appreciated, hoping to get caught up soon.

I did that for both SimGear and FlightGear. Now I can

Thanks, I will try that.
This is a slightly advanced operation, so don't feel too bad. You can
start by using a different --prefix argument to ./configure for each
branch, i.e.
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/experimental/
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stable/

The better way to do this is to #include simgear_config.h in any
