Hi, I’m trying to install SDL 1.2.9 from sources on my Debian Sarge 3.1.
’./configure’ and compilation work fine, but when I launch
’checkinstall’ with root privileges it complains with the following
message.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

“In theory, it shouldn’t be that hard, but it just needs to be done”
fixed!
A previous wx-windows 2.6.3 checkinstall has created a link “/usr/local/man
-> share/man” which I have moved to “/usr/local/man.orig”.
Now SDL 1.2.9 has been successfully installed on my system.
Thanks anyway.
