rdb:

Edit panda/src/glGraphicsStateGuardian_src.h, and find this line:
typedef void (APIENTRYP PFNGLSHADERSOURCEPROC) (GLuint shader, GLsizei count, const GLchar **string, const GLint *length);
Try replacing it with this:
typedef void (APIENTRYP PFNGLSHADERSOURCEPROC) (GLuint shader, GLsizei count, const GLchar* const *string, const GLint *length);
Let me know if it works and I’ll make the change permanent for the next release of Panda.

You should probably also install libssl-dev and libtiff-dev, though. Most of the other packages are for specific features that aren’t very important unless you want to use those explicitly.

Hi rdb,

I had the same exact problem when building Panda 1.8.1 on a Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64 host. Changing the source as you mentioned and doing the same modification to line 3916 of panda/src/glstuff/panda_glext.h fixed the build problem for me and samples are running fine.

Thank you so much,
Diego
