No usr/local/bin sdl-config

Well, I tried adding <SDL.h> with the include :stuck_out_tongue: I already had that figured
out. Anyway, I figured out part of my problem, its that I didn’t have the
developement library. So i downloaded that, and installed it. So, now I
have to add a path or something right?

  1. whereis sdl-config sdl-config: usr/bin/sdl-config

The problem is, am I supposed to have one in usr/local/bin ? It seems like
everyone else does. And, I hate to bother you again, but how do I add the
path so it will compile?

2)export PATH=‘usr/bin:$PATH’

Right?

No

No

It seems like everyone else does.

It’s because they installed SDL themselves and put it in /usr/local/
Peope tend to play a lot with SDL here :slight_smile:

Well, something is seriously broken in your system if you don’t already
have “/usr/bin” in your path (btw, adding “usr/bin” is pointless,
because the first “/” is missing).

Now what’s your error message ? Do you use a makefile ? If not, what’s
the command you use for compiling ?
Usually people tend to use the following to compile their first SDL
program :
gcc -o test test.c sdl-config --libs --cflags

I have one problem with it though. Post that I make through gmane never
reach the SDL mailing-list for some reason or when it does it takes a really
long-ass time to show up. And yes I did follow the instructions on gmane.org
and made sure that my email’s reply-to is in the header when responding.
Funny thing is when I post to the Scintilla and SciTE newsgroups through
gmane it goes through just fine but not for SDL, GDB and various other
newsgroups. Any idea why this is so?

Only thing I can think of is if you’re not subscribed to the SDL mailing
list with the email address you’re posting to Gmane to. Not sure about
Scintilla or SciTE, but I know SDL and GDB are both moderated lists (so,
when you post from an unsubscribed address, it goes through the moderator
before hitting the list). Might check your news settings the make sure you
have the right addy in there.
