161When compilation has finished, look in the top-level <code>lib/</code>
162(or <code>lib64/</code>) directory.
163You'll see a set of library files similar to this:

Brian5bba58c2007-09-12 10:11:49 -0600[diff] [blame]197
198<p>
199Running <code>make install</code> will install package configuration files
200for the pkg-config utility.
201</p>
202
203<p>
204When compiling your OpenGL application you can use pkg-config to determine
205the proper compiler and linker flags.
206</p>
207
208<p>
209For example, compiling and linking a GLUT application can be done with:
210</p>
211<pre>
212 gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs glut` mydemo.c -o mydemo
213</pre>
