Warnings on Arch Linux

[xyproto]

Hi,

Thanks for creating Glitter. I support the idea of making OpenGL easier to start with for beginners!

When following the instructions on Arch Linux, there are quite a few warnings. Adding cmake .. -Wno-dev to the build instructions may have the potential to make beginners less confused.

Best regards, Alexander F. Rødseth

  The package name passed to `find_package_handle_standard_args` (rt) does

CMake Deprecation Warning at Glitter/Vendor/bullet/CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 2.8.12 will be removed from a future version of
  CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value or use a ...<max> suffix to tell
  CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/cmake-3.19/Modules/FindOpenGL.cmake:293 (message):
  Policy CMP0072 is not set: FindOpenGL prefers GLVND by default when
  available.  Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0072" for policy details.  Use the
  cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning.

  FindOpenGL found both a legacy GL library:

    OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY: /usr/lib/libGL.so

  and GLVND libraries for OpenGL and GLX:

    OPENGL_opengl_LIBRARY: /usr/lib/libOpenGL.so
    OPENGL_glx_LIBRARY: /usr/lib/libGLX.so

  OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE has not been set to "GLVND" or "LEGACY", so for
  compatibility with CMake 3.10 and below the legacy GL library will be used.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  Glitter/Vendor/bullet/CMakeLists.txt:287 (FIND_PACKAGE)
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

Assuming GLVND is actually preferred, CMP0072 warning may be addressed by adding the following to the top level CMakeLists.txt: set(OPENGL_GL_PREFERENCE GLVND)

Assuming GLVND is actually preferred, CMP0072 warning may be addressed by adding the following to the top level CMakeLists.txt: set(OPENGL_GL_PREFERENCE GLVND)

set(OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE GLVND) worked for me. Mind the casing of OpenGL.
