Other OpenGL API variants such as `libegl-devel`, `libgles-devel`, `libglx-devel`, and `libopengl-devel` are also available, and will automatically add non-development `run_exports` dependencies.

If you are seeing this error after installing a package locally, then you are missing an [OpenGL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL) provider in your system dependencies. This is more likely to happen in headless systems with no graphics (servers, Docker images, etc). To fix it, you must install a provider like [Mesa](https://www.mesa3d.org/) with your system package manager.

This is more likely to happen in headless systems with no graphics (servers, Docker images, etc). To fix it, you must install a provider like [Mesa](https://www.mesa3d.org/) with your system package manager, for example (check your distro documentation for exact packages):

- Debian/Ubuntu-based distributions: `sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri libglx-mesa0 libegl-mesa0`
- Fedora-based distributions: `sudo dnf install mesa-libGL mesa-libEGL mesa-dri-drivers`
