I was just trying to hack up some autoconf/automake support for my
descent port, and I ran into the slight problem that there is no
standard location to find the header files for the SDL. Could someone
help me on how to find them, and/or could the SDL be changed so they are
installed to a standard place?
If you’re hacking up an auto(conf)make script, you’ll want to check the
two “standard” locations for include files at least (/usr/include and
/usr/local/include). I know that every time I compile and install
something, it goes into /usr/local (/usr/local/include for headers, and
/usr/local/lib for libraries).
Beyond that, you might need a switch to the configure script
(–SDL-header-path= or something similar). I don’t know that I like
the idea of a “standard place” for includes and libraries, especially
considering that paths are different on different operating systems.On 1 Sep, Peter Hawkins wrote:

I haven’t set a “standard” place for them, but I would look in:
