SDL Prolem - cannot find -ldnet

SDL compiles and installs fine (no errors anyway), then when I tray to
configure the tests I get:

configure:1236: checking for X
configure:1550: checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet
configure:1569: gcc -o conftest -O3 -march=i686 conftest.c -ldnet 1>&5
/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -ldnet
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1558 “configure”
#include “confdefs.h”
/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. /
/
We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */

in the config.log.

Thanks

This is normal, and isn’t a fatal error.
What output do you get to the terminal?
