Qt error: cannot find -lGL
-
Hi, I'm trying to make a QWidget for a university project, and I started from the most basic stuff following qt's official tutorials. However I' m encountering a compile problem: I keep getting this error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL
Makefile:251: recipe for target 'Test1' failed
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Test1] Error 1
00:05:55: The process "/usr/bin/make" exited with code 2.
Error while building/deploying project Test1 (kit: Desktop Qt 5.10.0 GCC 64bit)
The kit Desktop Qt 5.10.0 GCC 64bit has configuration issues which might be the root cause for this problem.
When executing step "Make"Any suggestion?

Hi and welcome to the forums
can you try
sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev -y
https://wiki.qt.io/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntumaybe it has slightly differnt names on debian.
it seems to miss the gl libs/headers
