I am following instructions in

      GLOBE_3D/globe_3d_info.html

where it says

"As a prerequisite, you need the following libraries to
be installed: FreeGLUT, Xi, Xext, Xmu"

I have all of these. Instructions doe not give specific versions,
so I made sure all these libraries are on my linux system
(they must be, else it will not link)

Btw, there is no "FreeGLUT" library. There is freeglu3 .deb
package, which I have installed. It supplied /usr/lib/libglut.so

I have libGL.so, libGLU.so, libglut.so, libX11.so,
libXi.so, libXmu.so, libXext.so and libm.so

If there are more specific instructions as what versions
of libraries one needs, that would be better. For me to just
keep trying different linux distro and different libraries
by random in the hope it works, is not very productive way to
build something.
