Freeglut Maintainer here: Nothing should depend on glut. If it doesn't work with freeglut, it was probably written in 1993 and never touched since. So please, switch it over :) Afair there is no port that depends on glut other than supertuxcart. All ports were switched over to freeglut after it was imported. I would love to see glut bite the dust. Getting rid of the PITA that is glut was the reason for porting freeglut (not that there was much to do). Tobias
