I'm running arch linux and am making an attempt to run DaVinci Resolve. Initially startup said nothing, it just timed out and closed. Then I found a recommendation to run it with
/opt/resolve/bin/resolve
this got me an error saying
libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This has sent me on a wild goose chase trying to install libGLU.so.1 on my system. I heard somewhere it is part of mesa so I
sudo pacman -S mesa
and I've tried to find a AUR package that might have it but no luck. Even trying variations of
yay libGLU
and
yay libGLU-mesa
, no luck so far.
Additionally
find / -name 'libLGU*'
returned nothing even when ran with sudo, meaning it isn't already on my system in the wrong directory.
This might unfortunately be an instance where I download the file and place it where it needs to go but that's probably not in the best interest of the long term longevity of my system.
I'm probably fairly novice when compared to most others on linux but I think I've gotten a lot of the basics down. Would love any insight you may have on this issue!

While an outdated forum post said that
/usr/lib/libGLU.so.1
is owned by the
mesa
package, it is now currently owned by
glu
.
pacman -S glu
ought to give you your needed library.

For future reference, you can reverse search filename->package using
pkgfile
, which works even if you don't have the respective files/packages locally.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/pkgfile
$ sudo pkgfile --update
$ pkgfile libGLU.so.1
extra/glu
Alternatively there's the built-in pacman -F
, but it's generally slower than pkgfile
.
