Install the build environment and OpenGL graphics driver in Ubuntu system

Install the build environment and OpenGL graphics driver to prepare the GEANT4 for installation.

1. Install the basic compiling environment

sudo apt install build-essential

2. Install OpenGL Library

sudo apt install Libgl1-mesa-dev

3. Install OpenGL Utilities

sudo apt install Libglu1-mesa-dev

The OpenGL Utilities is a toolkit built on the OpenGL Library, providing a number of handy functions to make OpenGL more powerful and easier to use.

4, install sudo apt install Libxt-dev

This package is not loaded when compiling geant4, the Error:x11/intrinsic.h:no such file or directory error is reported.

5, open the new Package Manager, find LIBXMU. Put all seven found. Otherwise, you will encounter the following error when compiling GEANT4: Include/g4openglxviewer.hh:46:29:error:x11/xmu/stdcmap.h:no such file or directory

The reason may be that the LIBXMU-related packages that are installed by default are not dev editions (develop), so there is no header file in the system.
