ogre

tried to install ogre3d release 1.2 (dagon) today (fedora core 4 box).
i remembered ogre being quite fickle to get running so i wasn't surprised to hit a few problems:
it wanted a /usr/lib/libmng.la file but libmng has stopped using libtool and current versions don't have it anymore.
wrote one myself that looks like this:
dlname='libmng.so.1'
library_names='libmng.so.1.0.0 libmng.so.1 libmng.so'
old_library='libmng.a'
dependency_libs=' -lm -ljpeg -lz'
current=1
age=0
revision=9
installed=yes
shouldnotlink=no
dlopen=''
dlpreopen=''
libdir='/usr/lib'
