ZSNES WIP for Unix

OmniXBro · Post by **OmniXBro** » Wed May 24, 2006 2:43 am

Howdy guys

I'm triying to get ZSNES WIP working on my Debian platform.
I already have 1.42 through apt-get, which is basically an automatic installer. But with the WIP, I had to download the source code and....do something with it. Compile, I guess.
But I'm lost at this point. Does anyone know what I should do? How to compile/install it etc?

Oh yea...from what the documentation says, I was supposed to do this :

# sh ./autogen.sh && gmake && gmake install

but the following errors appear :
# sh ./autogen.sh Generating build information using aclocal and autoconf...
./autogen.sh: line 6: sdl-config: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 6: aclocal: command not found
.
.
.
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
./configure: line 2917: syntax error near unexpected token `1.2.0,,AC_MSG_ERROR'
./configure: line 2917: `AM_PATH_SDL(1.2.0,,AC_MSG_ERROR(SDL >= 1.2.0 is required))'

WHAT HAPPEN LOL?

Thanks

Install automake, autoconf, libsdl1.2-dev

Automake and Autoconf, GET.
But :

Code: Select all

# apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  libsdl1.2-dev: Depends: libsdl1.2debian (= 1.2.7+1.2.8cvs20041007-4.1) but 1.2.9-5 is to be installed
                 Depends: libsvga1-dev but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libasound2-dev but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: aalib1-dev but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libartsc0-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

And I find trying to install each of the mentioned packages one by one doesn't work either.

For example

Code: Select all

# apt-get install libsvga1-dev
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
  libsvga1-dev: Depends: libsvga1 (= 1:1.4.3-21) but 1:1.4.3-22 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

And finally

Code: Select all

# apt-get install libsvga1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
libsvga1 is already the newest version.

Have you updated apt-get recently?

OmniXBro · Post by **OmniXBro** » Wed May 24, 2006 3:54 pm

yes

# apt-get update, right?

But it's like these things are dependant on on older version than the one I have....
libsvga1-dev: Depends: libsvga1 (= 1:1.4.3-21) but 1:1.4.3-22 is to be installed
like that one for example. I'm stumped

any idea on how to solve this?
Thanks a lot for the help btw

Edit : incase you want to see my sources.list :

Code: Select all

deb http://mirror.datafast.net.au/debian/ stable main contrib
deb http://mirror.pacific.net.au/debian-non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org stable main
deb http://www.interq.or.jp/libra/oohara/debian-unofficial/ ./
deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian woody main

Oh and your cycling avatars is so cool, DO WANT!

all i can say is WTF!

Maybe your main mirror is fucked up, change it maybe?

Or the videolan sources is fucking up your packages, since it's a woody source, and sarge is the stable release now.

Or maybe you didn't dist-update? 'apt-get dist-upgrade'.

That's a PHP script, which cycles through several different pictures at once.

I tried dist-upgrade too.

nothing happened.

# apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Calculating upgrade...Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I wouldn't be too surprised if my sources.list isn't very good though. I'm not sure I have it optimized. That's what I ended up with after looking through some "tutorial" pages on the net though. Anyone know how to make a good sources.list for a debian stable release?

Thanks

All of our rotations are ran from our own severs.

i'ld say you remove everything then you run apt-setup.

OmniXBro · Post by **OmniXBro** » Fri May 26, 2006 12:23 pm

I'm willing to try this. But what are you referring to when you say "remove everything"?
remove all the packages mentioned thus far? remove all the entries in the sources.list?
Please advise. Thanks.
