Undefined reference to glut

Hello everyone,
I'm new in using Debian and Qt. Tried to compile simple project, wrote by my friend in C::B. I was trying include all libraries, update debugger, compilers.. but still:

Program was wrote on Windows, we were trying to set it on linux. When I was trying, there wasn't the first errors, just "undefined reference". Friend do something to run it in C::B - programs compiles. But not by Qt
looks like error in linker? But What im doing wrong?
int test7.pro:

TEMPLATE = app

INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/GL
# Input

The same errors when compiling i.e. tutorials from inernet. Thank you in advance!

Hi! First of all you're using ancient Qt 4, which is a bad idea for new code. Second, you need to link your application to the glut library, something like: -lglut.

Oh yes I found it.. using Qt5 now. Tried to include:

INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/GL -lglut -lGL -libglut -lfreeglut

less errors, just:

$ make clean
$ qmake
$ make

tried to add every name of lib i found on internet...
in includepath I should add path to *.h files?

I also tried

INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/GL -lglut -lGL -libglut -lfreeglut \
/usr/lib lglut -lGL -libglut -lfreeglut -llibglut

what gives me more errors

It should more look like this:

INCLUDEPATH += /path/to/glut/include  # where the header files are
LIBPATH     += /path/to/glut/lib # where the shared object files  are
LIBS        += -lglut # name of the library

Thank you!
I also had to add -lGL and -lGLU. Works
