I’ve just cross-compiled the SDL libraries (1.2.7) for use on the linux
framebuffer on an embedded PXA255 arm board. I specified
–prefix=/usr/local/arm After configuring I su root, make install, ldconfig,
and then exit back to my user login.
In the /test directory I ran configure and got:
checking for SDL - version >= 1.2.7… no
*** The sdl-config script installed by SDL could not be found
*** If SDL was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the SDL_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to sdl-config.
configure: error: *** SDL version 1.2.7 not found!
I don’t fully understand pkg-config. Should I be using it? If the .h files
are in /usr/local/arm/src and the libs are in /usr/local/arm/lib then what’s
the problem?
All help appreciated. sorry if this is a basic question. they’re all basic
once you know the answer

This is now driving me nuts. I tried compiling the testsprite program
manually rather than using the configure script and make. Here’s what I
tried and what I got:
$ arm-linux-gcc -c testsprite.c -I /usr/local/arm/include/SDL/
$ arm-linux-gcc -o testsprite testsprite.o -L /usr/local/arm/lib/ -lSDL
testsprite.o: In function LoadSprite': testsprite.o(.text+0x20): undefined reference toSDL_RWFromFile’
testsprite.o(.text+0x30): undefined reference to SDL_LoadBMP_RW' testsprite.o: In functionMoveSprites’:
testsprite.o(.text+0x58c): undefined reference to sin' testsprite.o: In functionmain’:
testsprite.o(.text+0x1308): undefined reference to SDL_PollEvent' /usr/local/arm/lib//libSDL.a(SDL_cursor.o): In functionSDL_SetCursor’:
/usr/local/src/SDL-1.2.7/src/video/SDL_cursor.c:217: undefined reference to
`SDL_GetMouseState’
This probably has a really trivial solution, but without it I’m stuck.
Can someone help?

Try using sdl-config --libs instead of `-L/usr/local/arm/lib -lSDL’, that
might help you link against the right library.
Good luck.

sdl-config doesn’t seem to have been installed. Where should it be, and how
do I get it?

Under FreeBSD it is located in /usr/local/bin, run `whereis sdl-config’ to
find it on your system. The sdl-config script is installed whenever you
install the sdl-devel package, or whenever you install from source. Perhaps
you do not have the sdl-devel package installed, or you are missing some
portions of the package.
