SDL and Trouble Installing Frozen-Bubble program

I’m having trouble installing Frozen Bubble software on my Fedora Core 2 Linux OS computer. I am a newbie to Linux and would appreciate your help. When I try to install the .RPM file from the latest Frozen-Bubble game (i386), I get a list of files that it says are not present (dependencies). Sorry, I don’t have the output showing those dependencies, however they are all associated with the SDL library. It looks like I have certain SDL files needed by Frozen-Bubble but I am missing others. Below is my information from issuing the commands the LibSDL.org site recommends that I submit.

I would welcome any suggestions.

Thank You,

Greg----

Hey Greg,

There’s a bunch of addon libraries to sdl like sdl_image and sdl_mixer that have to be installed seperately from sdl but that many sdl applications commonly use.

I’m betting you’re missing these.

You can find these on the libraries page or if you want, post what it says you’re missing and we can help you find them!----- Original Message -----

Alan,

Thank you. I have the hard copy printout of the screen output here at work with me and it shows that the following are missing:

SDL:: App
SDL:: Cursor
SDL:: Event
SDL:: Font
SDL:: Mixer
SDL:: Surface
and
Perl-SDL version 1.19.0 is needed also.

Are these the libraries you are referring to?

Thanks,

Greg-----------------------------------------------------------------

If you’re trying to install this program (
http://www.frozen-bubble.org/index.php?menu_item=1 ) Then it
looks like you are missing SDL_perl (a link to download all the
dependancies is also at the link above )

What are the exact errors?

You may want to try a tarball. (I personally have had problems
with RPMS not finding depenancies correctly with other programs.
I used a tarball instead (.tar.gz) and it worked flawlessly )

odd!

sdl app and cursor i couldnt find.

event might be sdl_eventmap but im not sure

theres lots of sdl font libs so not sure there

sdl_mixer is indeed a real lib though

no idea on surface.

you can scope out the libraries at:

http://www.libsdl.org/libraries.php

im thinkin maybe you should contact the makers of frozen bubble directly and maybe they can help you out cause this doesnt apear to be an sdl problem.

http://www.frozen-bubble.org/

maybe one of them are listening though?

sorry dunno how else to help, good luck!----- Original Message -----

At the end of your /etc/yum.conf file add:

[freshrpms]
name=Freshrpms.net - Fedora Linux $releasever (freshrpms)
baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/$releasever/$basearch/freshrpms

Then type at a console:
yum install frozen-bubble

That way all the dependancies are handled for you.

(and if you’ve never run yum before, you might want to run "yum update"
to make sure you have all the latest patches for your system)
