configure doesn't find SDL

Post by BB_DaKraxor »

Hi there.

I downloaded v1.36 and got some errors.

Code: Select all

./configure
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking for nasm... /usr/bin/nasm
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
checking for X... libraries , headers
checking for sdl-config... /usr/bin/sdl-config
checking for SDL - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** Could not run SDL test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means SDL was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved SDL since it was installed. In the latter case, you
*** may want to edit the sdl-config script: /usr/bin/sdl-config
configure: error: SDL >= 1.2.0 is required
i checked my SDL version by running "/usr/bin/sdl-config --version" and it said it's 1.2.6 so it should be alright.
i thought it can be installed incorrectly so i removed and reinstalled it.
but i'm still getting those error messages when trying to run configure!

any ideas? hope yous can help. seeyaz
