trouble configuring slackware 13.37 btBulletCollisionCommon.

[savet]

I'm trying to resolve the bullet dependency. I downloaded bullet 2.78, but have also tried 2.77.

When I build bullet with cmake, I get:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

root@ibmt61a:/home/chris/bullet-2.78# cmake . -G "Unix Makefiles"
OPENCL NOT FOUND
OPENGL FOUND
/usr/lib64/libGLU.so/usr/lib64/libGL.so/usr/lib64/libSM.so/usr/lib64/libICE.so/usr/lib64/libX11.so/usr/lib64/libXext.so

-- WARNING: you are using the obsolete 'GLU' package, please use 'OpenGL' instead

-- Build files have been written to: /home/chris/bullet-2.78


I have searched extensively, but can't find any recommendations on how to resolve this. I ran make and make install, which completed without issue.

I have verified that bullet is installed in /usr/local/include/bullet

running ./waf configure returns the following:

{l Code}: {l Select All Code}

I tried creating a symbolic link from /usr/local/include/bullet to /usr/lib/bullet, but I cannot get LOS to recognize the bullet installation.

Any recommendations?

Ok, I actually found my problem. I'm using 64 bit slackware, but have installed the 32 bit libs as well. pkg-config was set to check the 64 bit library destinations, but not the 32 bit. Updating $PKG_CONFIG_PATH with /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig allowed LOS to find bullet and build correctly.

Congrats, why did you download the 32 bit bullet though?

I downloaded source and compiled. I might need to compile it with a 64 bit flag....this is my first true 64 bit distro. It's also possible that it just dropped the pkg-config file into the wrong (aka normal) destination folder.
