Can't solve a C related issue

>>204963

The error says that you're missing a header and you have confirmed that you're missing a header. What else do you need to fix this problem?

it's looking for it to be in the folder in usr/include/GL. You can't edit it because I think it's controlled by the package manager or something, I don't know.

I already downloaded the header anyway and placed it in a directory that was specified in the "compilers > search directories" tab, even though I knew that wasn't the correct way to fix the issue. the file that includes the "glcorearb.h" file asks for it ask "GL/corearb.h" so I tried putting it in a folder called "GL"

Didn't work

Install libigl

Pretty sure that isn't what I need. I'm just trying to get GLFW3 up and running

I bet you are looking at that one github post that comes up when you google "GL/glcorearb.h: No such file or directory"

>>204980
If the issue is easily found by googling and you haven't attempted to fix it, whew.
It's referenced as a core OpenGL library in the Github issue.

>You can't edit it because I think it's controlled by the package manager or something, I don't know.

Have you tried editing it? You can't even with Nautilus? Last time I checked you could edit anything if you tried the right way. There still should be a direct solution like installing/reinstalling something, I don't care enough to look it up because it should be easy as fuck to find.

I've seen that post so many times that I didn't even have to look it up to know that's where you got the idea that I needed libigl.

Libigl is a totally unrelated library. I don't even think in the github post he tells the person to download Libigl, he tells them to download the header

I think my issue stems from my installing of GLFW.

The GLFW website makes it seem like you have to compile it yourself (There might have been an easier alternative, too late for that) and I don't really understand Cmake. I got it to generate makefiles anyway, and ran "make install"

>>204994

>make install

I would tell you to uninstall it but you seemed to imply that you use make install. I hope you're not implying that you're using make install without CheckInstall, because if that's the case congrats on fucking your OS. Just format your whole computer and do it fine this time; or copy the header in the right folder and see if that works.

I don't think it's wise to copy a header into a root directory...

>>205001

If it's telling you that it's missing just do it and see what happens faggot. After fucking all your OS using make install you're gonna bitch about copying one single file that you can always remove later? Don't be a pussy, you'll probably have to format anyway.

Mark my words faggot. You fucked it and you will suffer the consequences. Remember this thread when it happens.

aptitude install mesa-common-dev

In general, when you need a header, you should go to packages.ubuntu.com, search for files whose names contain the string "<your missing header>", then install the package that comes up.

You, my friend, are a grade-A pillock.

Yes, you're supposed to use the package manager and not just make-install shit, but:

- for almost every package, unless you tell it not to, make install uses PREFIX=/usr/local/, so it won't overwrite managed files or write to managed directories. All OP needs to do to sort it out is delete all the relevent stuff in /usr/local/.
- even if it didn't prefix, the package manager will overwrite everything the next time the packaged version is installed or updated
- this is a development header for a library that only an imbecile would describe as "critical". Assume it being around comprehensively fucks everything it pertains to: so fucking what? All that happens is that OP can't do OpenGL development, which he couldn't do anyway 24 hours ago.

How does it feel being so fucking stupid that you think "Anonymous" is a poster? I'm not a friend with newfags, so stop calling me your friend.

>for almost every package something works in some way, therefore act as if it acted that way for all packages

Retard.

>the package manager will overwrite everything the next time the packaged version is installed or updated

The whole idea of building from source is using software that has no packaged versions available dumbass, then it won't be a packaged version to overwrite it. Stop acting as if you knew shit because you're clearly new to GNU/Linux, and go back to Plebbit if anonymous posting is so hard to understand.

>>205461
Yet the software in question clearly has a package, and it's called "mesa-common-dev".

I can post from my phone too, and I can pull up the DOM inspector before taking a screenshot too, but I don't feel the need to do these things, because I don't need to conjure up an imaginary army with an inexplicable hardon for package management.

The idea that two people who both think that writing to /usr/lib is like writing to the superblock, both don't know how to use an online package catalogue, and both write like semi-literate cretins exist in this world is reaching, and the idea that they both happen to be in this same thread at this same time is frankly preposterous.
