Hi
I’m having trouble getting the OS X SDL-devel-1.2.7.pkg.tar.gz to
install the SDL development files and framework.
The installer says that it will install the SDL framework (for Project
Builder/Xcode) into ~/Library/Frameworks. It correctly creates the
directory SDL.framework inside, but doesn’t appear to copy anything into it.
The SDL runtime package installs fine, copying the appropriate files
into /Library/Frameworks. Is the installer for
SDL-devel.1.2.7.pkg.tar.gz just broken, or am I missing something obvious?
(apologies to Sam if you get this mail twice, I posted off-list first)–
Cheers,
Jay

I use everything without a problem. Just try using the demos at least.On Apr 3, 2004, at 7:30 AM, Jay Cornwall wrote:

I’m having that problem too. I didn’t have time yet to find out the reason
and how to fix it, but some things that appear odd about that package are:
o The package isn’t laid out like the ones PackageMaker creates - with
Contents, Resources folders and such. Not having read the documentation,
I’m surprised that it works at all…
o Is there a reason for having identical post_install and post_upgrade
scripts? Why not just have a postflight script?
o Is there a reason for installing all the stuff in one place and then
moving it where it belongs, instead of just installing it in the right
place from the beginning? I see that there could be a problem with
deciding whether to install Xcode or ProjectBuilder templates, but that
could be solved by breaking the package up into a metapackage with
subpackages, and checking for Xcode/PB in the subpackage’s InstallCheck
script. That approach would have the additional benefit that the user
could choose to install only the parts he wants.
These are just superficial observations, don’t take it as serious
criticism as long as I haven’t done any real investigation.

Same here, what i have done, is I installed the pkg, then installed
SDL from source. That way the includes are at least on the system even
though they are not put into the framework. Still a hassle and a
problem though.On Apr 5, 2004, at 6:49 AM, Christian Walther wrote:
