Hi there. This might be slightly off-topic, sorry.
Is there any recommended way of installing the SDL
development environment on Mandrake (ver.10)?
Thing is I can’t find any libSDL-devel or similar on the CDs
or in the contrib archives.
I guess “./configure; make; make install;” on the sources is
one way. Is there any drawback to this method, apart from
not beeing the “usual, simple way” on the Mandrake OS?
Any hints appreciated, I am fairly new to Mandrake and
Linux. I did a search for “sdl mandrake howto” on google but
didn’t find anything on this subject.

Well, libSDL is packaged in mandrake, along with the devel env. You can install it with the following simple command :
urpmi libSDL1.2-devel
I guess “./configure; make; make install;” on the sources is

It works fine. That’s what I use when I test changes in SDL.
