spx2 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is there any way to install PDL without its dependencies POGL or OpenGL. I am more interested in the algebra routines that PDL provides and I don't want to display anything anywhere.

Thanks

    The INSTALL file suggests editing perldl.conf to specify build options. You could set USE_POGL => 0 and give that a try.

    Note from THE FUTURE: in May 2021 with 2.048, PDL no longer formally depends on any OpenGL to be installed/built, but if such is present, then the relevant "TriD" stuff will get built and installed.
