[gentoo-user] emerge swt failed: cannot find -lGL

[Iain Buchanan]

Hi all,

I was just performing a routing update recently, and swt failed with
this error:

!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call
stack if relevant.

now, I've had "cannot find -l<blah> before, and a revdep-rebuild or
something usually fixes it.  In this case however, I couldn't get around
it.

I have been swapping between xorg's x11-drm radeon driver, and ATI's
fglrx driver recently - but I've used eselect correctly - I'm now using
the x11-drm driver.

I don't know what to look at next - any hints?
thanks,
