I’m trying to build Aleph One on NetBSD/mac68k. It requires SDL, SDL_image, and
SDL_net. I read about the NetBSD patch for pthreads earlier this month, and
thus managed to get SDL to build and install using (yesterday’s) cvs as long as
I configured with the joystick disabled. (I won’t be using one, so hopefully
this is OK?) However, SDL_image and SDL_net seem unable to find/use it. Both
give this error:
checking for a BSD-compatible install… /usr/bin/install -c
checking for sdl-config… /usr/local/bin/sdl-config
checking for SDL - version >= 1.2.4… no
*** Could not run SDL test program, checking why…
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means SDL was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved SDL since it was installed. In the latter case, you
*** may want to edit the sdl-config script: /usr/local/bin/sdl-config
configure: error: *** SDL version 1.2.4 not found!
When I look in the config.log (for SDL_image), it stopped after this:

The SDL_net log looks pretty much the same with different line numbers. I don’t
know what this “pthread_yield_np” is or why my SDL build has an undefined
reference to it. Any ideas appreciated.

So if you dont need the current CVS version of SDL, you might consider
installing SDL (1.2.9), SDL_image(1.2.4) and SDL_net(1.2.5) using pkgsrc
(yes you can build them from source with the options you want).
Otherwise, well you might have to patch the current CVS version manually and
carefully…

The pkgsrc guys have done many patches for the SDL lib (1.2.9), to be able
to build them as packages.
I had problems with the source package last time I grabbed it (July?).
That’s why I was trying the latest CVS. I just got the new 2005Q4
tarball, so I’ll try again. Hopefully it has fixes for whatever the
issue was then that I’ve since forgotten.
So if you dont need the current CVS version of SDL, you might consider
installing SDL (1.2.9), SDL_image(1.2.4) and SDL_net(1.2.5) using pkgsrc
(yes you can build them from source with the options you want).
How do I build with options from packages? There’s no ./configure step
when using pkgsrc. I don’t know that I need any particular options set,
except that I couldn’t get CVS to build until I used --disable-joystick
as I mentioned.
Otherwise, well you might have to patch the current CVS version manually and
carefully…
The other way is to fetch the files, then once uncompressed go to the work
directory, and build it manually with a ./configure (options) && make, then
back to the package level for make install…
Have fun !

I was able to build all three from the latest (2005q4) pkgsrc without
any special options. Thanks for your help!
