make: *** [GtkGLArea/Makefile] Error 141
Using the libMesaGL(U) linkage is now both deprecated and unavailable on current linux systems. The name of these libraries was changed to libGL(U) per the openGL ABI (http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/index.html). Attached patch fixes this issue in the GtkGLArea Makefile.PL and pkg.pl. Thanks for the great package :)
