Just call glLoadIdentity() after you've done with rotated textures.

glRotate has no effect within glBegin() - glEnd().

You can rotate textures using texture matrix:

There's an option to specify directory where to install .pc files:
scons prefix=%{buildroot} pkgconfigdir=%{buildroot}/lib/pkgconfig

I'm not sure that "prefix" is used for anything other than specifying the location of the dir "install" copies files to, so try using "prefix" as "DESTDIR".

obgr_seneca wrote:"make DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install". This doesn't work with scons.

"scons prefix=%{buildroot} install". Why doesn't it work?

It's necessary to link against OpenGL dynamically to use correct implementation(nvidia, ati...). It won't cause problems on different distros because OpenGL API is standardized.

there ARE unneeded dependencies which will be put into the resulting binary. Same set of -l* options is passed when compiling freeorion, freeoriond and freeorionca. Some -l's are needed e.g. by freeorion but not by freeorionca, but each -l is required by at least one of executables(unless it was ad...

All freeorion's direct dependencies are genuinely required. If you want to decrease number of dependencies, your best bet is to disable unused features in dependency libs(DevIL, python, graphviz... they all have optional dependencies).

Those boost parameters are specific to freeorion's SCons script, they are not general SCons options. In order for tutorial's script take those parameters code to do so must be added to the script. That's why it's good idea to merge it with GG's main SConstruct: it won't be necessary to maintain para...

Flatline is referring to GG tutorials located in FreeOrion/GG/tutorial. Their SConstruct indeed requires hand-hacking to work properly. IMHO it's a good idea to merge it with GG's main SConstruct.

This option sets the preferred render to texture(RTT) method: Copy, PBuffer or FBO.

I too had this issue when I was running Ogre samples with nvidia's beta driver. When I downgraded nvidia's driver to 100.14.19 this issue went away, even in FBO RTT mode.

Try running this code in python interpreter: What does it say after you type get_config_var("LDLIBRARY")?

Make sure that you also have g++. It's a separate Ubuntu package. gcc package doesn't install C++ compiler.
