####Common Build Issue

Recent Ubuntu OpenGL packages have a bug in the glxext.h header. If you encounter an error such as

/usr/include/GL/glxext.h:480:143: error: 'GLintptr' has not been declared

during compliation, edit /usr/include/GL/glxext.h as root, and add the lines

typedef ptrdiff_t GLsizeiptr;
typedef ptrdiff_t GLintptr;

at line 480 and rerun make.
