GLMakie crashes during build on Google Colab

General Usage
1

GLMakie fails to build on Google Colab notebook:

Precompiling GLMakie
✗ GLFW_jll
✗ GLFW
Info Given GLMakie was explicitly requested, output will be shown live
ERROR: LoadError: InitError: could not load library “/root/.julia/artifacts/37dda4e57d9de95c99d1f8c6b3d8f4eca88c39a2/lib/libGL.so”

Notebook minimal code: Google Colab

I tried various workarounds for installing libGL to no avail
I need GLMakie because CairoMakie can’t do 3d volume plots
Thanks!

Did you try WGLMakie?

3

Yes but WGLMakie says

Can’t get three: Timed out waiting for session to get ready

4

Hm, maybe WGLMakie doesn’t work with the display system on Colab

5

Yeah needs to reconfigure ports probably

Anyone who’s gotten GLMakie or WGLMakie to work on Colab?
I updated the minimal notebook showing errors for both

As workaround I’ll just download the workload results and visualize them on my laptop. . But would be nice if someone figures this out
