Build fails to load OpenGL drivers

[grahamas]

Can anyone suggest how I would debug this? As far as I can tell, my OpenGL install works elsewhere (e.g. Steam). This is GLMakie v0.1.0 and Julia v1.4.0.

(@v1.4) pkg> build GLMakie

_ you don't have an OpenGL capable Graphic Card,
_ you don't have the newest video driver installed,
_ or the GLFW build failed. If you're on linux and `]build` GLFW failed,
_ try manually adding `sudo apt-get install libglfw3` and then `]build GLMakie`.

_ If you don't have a GPU, there is also a Cairo software backend
_ for Makie which you can use:
_ https://github.com/JuliaPlots/CairoMakie.jl.
_ Please check the below error and open an issue at:
_ https://github.com/JuliaPlots/GLMakie.jl.
_ After you fixed your OpenGL install, please run `]build GLMakie` again!
_ GLMakie will still load, but will be disabled as a default backend for Makie

Looks like: JuliaGL/GLFW.jl#198

[grahamas]

Yes, thank you! The workaround in that issue fixed my problem.

For some reason ]build GLFW didn't produce any errors for me, so I discounted the many messages suggesting the problem might be with with GLFW.

[SimonDanisch]

Well, the messages come from GLMakie, since I do some more checks to verify that opengl is correctly installed - so the issue is still with GLFW ;)
