Library "GLU" not found

[helxsz]

I have installed pyglet, when running the main.py, a error came up saying

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 7, in from pyglet.gl import * File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyglet/gl/init.py", line 99, in from pyglet.gl.lib import GLException File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyglet/gl/lib.py", line 143, in from pyglet.gl.lib_glx import link_GL, link_GLU, link_GLX File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyglet/gl/lib_glx.py", line 49, in glu_lib = pyglet.lib.load_library('GLU') File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyglet/lib.py", line 122, in load_library raise ImportError('Library "%s" not found.' % names[0]) ImportError: Library "GLU" not found.

But I can't use pip to install the GLU library, where is the GLU library ?

Try pip install pyopengl

Did you install all actual libraries? http://openbsd.7691.n7.nabble.com/Library-quot-GLU-quot-not-found-td107080.html

[Aareon]

First, try; sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev

If that doesn’t work, try manually searching for the library; sudo apt-cache search glut

[johnbhlm]

@Aareon After apt-cache search glut ,what to do next?

[Aareon]

@johnbhlm Sorry for the very late reply, better late than never ig. What was the output of apt-cache search glut?

If anyone else is struggling with this issue, please try installing mesa and/or mesa-utils for whichever distribution of Linux you're using. It's a google search away. When I originally answered in this thread, I was referencing this StackOverflow answer.

sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev solves the problem in ubuntu 20.04 wsl2 win 10 I actually had the problem installing open AI gym, but found a solution here XD
