error: Library "libGL" was not found

I am trying to install ALBERTA. When run ./configure, I get this error message:

checking for main in -lGL... no
configure: error: Library "libGL" was not found

What can I do?

As the error message indicates: There seems to be no OpenGL library installed on your system. Try

sudo apt-get install -y libgl1-mesa-dev

to install the missing dependency and then run the configure script again. (Package name and package manager invocation might be different on other than Debian-based systems.)
