Compiling LibQGLViewer fails due to library not found lGLU


I was trying to compile libQGLViewer in OS X Yosemite but after executing make the following error appears

ld: library not found for -lGLU clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make[1]: *** [/Users/MyUser/Library/Frameworks/QGLViewer.framework/QGLViewer] Error 1 make: *** [sub-QGLViewer-make_first-ordered] Error 2

I found that there is a library called libGLU.1.dylib under /usr/X11/lib but I have no idea on where to add that line in order to compile correctly the library. Moreover, I don't know if it is the right library that the compilation is asking for.

Any thoughts?


Solution

  • It was easy to solve the problem by simply removing the following line

    QMAKE_LIBS_OPENGL *= -lGLU
    

    from all the .pro files in libQGLViewer
