Re: I need help compiling SDL
Posted by: mikro Mar,31.2008-22:26 

good news my friend =)

if i wanted to be hard on you i'd say something like "you didn't follow my instruction, aaargh!!!" but since i don't like to be hard on people and it would be quite unfair, i give you explanation ;-)

the short version: you installed also the package called "libs.tar" which contains libiconv. really outdated libiconv.

the longer version: configure script found this lib, yes, but compilation (or better: linking) failed and variable called HAVE_ICONV_H was #undefined. But, variable called HAVE_ICONV was #defined and that was the problem -- SDL wanted to use this lib but #include file was omitted so it was dead end.

ok, how to fix it.

1) port the newest libiconv (long, not for beginner)

2) rpm -e --nodeps libiconv (easy but not recommended -- you break dependencies)

3) install easymint without libs.tar (longer work but has that advantage you will know when some library is missing so you can easily target your configure fails)

I'd recommend 3) -- yes, this means libz wont be found so unpack libs.tar somewhere in your /root (tar xf libs.tar) and take only libz[-devel] and install only these two packages.

Will this topper run? Not really -- don't forget to create that wchar.h, comment last #ifdef WIN32 and its #endif in files decl.h and decl.cc (to enable that mb_* stuff)

I hope I didn't forget anything ;) Let me/us know how it's going.
