I have Python 2.7.3 installed in Fedora 17. I installed vpython and I run the following python script 

from visual import *
a = sphere(color = color.red)

I get a brief vpython window outline but no image, and the following error output 

(python:3538): GdkGLExt-WARNING **: Cannot open \u000f

(python:3538): GdkGLExt-WARNING **: Cannot open ЇO\xa4O\u007f

(python:3538): glibmm-ERROR **: 
unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler:
what: Unable to get extension function: glCreateProgramObjectARB even though the      extension is advertised.

Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

I have used Ubuntu in the past and have gotten rid of the same error by installing libgtkglextmm-x11-1.2-dev, this completely fixed it. What is the package in the yum repository I need to install to fix this? If that is unavailable, what else can I do?

gtkglextmm-devel

You can use yum provides to determine which package a file belongs to:

$ yum provides *libgtkglextmm*

Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto

For brevity I'm only showing the i686 output. You will also see the x86_64 listings.
