27 The file glxproto.h appears to be incorrect on my machine... I'm not
28 sure which part of the modularised X this file should be a part of...
29 But it's not in /var/tmp/portage anywhere after installing
30 xorg-x11-7.0 and all it's pre-reqs (I went through the process of
31 removing all my old X version and also all the pre-reqs I know of for
32 v7.0).
33
34 The glxproto.h I do have is
35
36 damned tmp # ls -l /usr/include/GL/glxproto.h
37 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Jan 10 18:32 /usr/include/GL/glxproto.h ->
38 //usr/lib32/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h
39 damned tmp # ls -l /usr/lib32/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h
40 - -r--r--r-- 1 root root 71034 Jan 3 23:21

46 Very curious...
