PyOpenGL glutInit NullFunctionError

According to the link below the problem was with the glut installation rather than pip install. It seems glut files are not part of PyOpenGL or PyOpenGL_accelerate package. You have to download them seperately.

Windows user can use the link below to download glut as mentioned in the given link.
ftp://ftp.sgi.com/opengl/glut/glut3.html.old#windows

Linux Users can just install glut using the following command:

sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev

Hope this helps 🙂
