Hello,
The header file “X11/extensions/Xext.h” is needed by
"src/video/x11/SDL_x11dyn.h". It seems, that the configure script does
not check that. Maybe you better want to let it check. It is provided by
the package libxext-dev in Debian.
cheers

Hi again,
this issue still isn’t fixed. On my system: Linux Mint 15 amd64 , I have
to install the package ‘libxext-dev’ to provide the required header
‘X11/extensions/Xext.h’.
Okay, but after installing the package, another error is raised:
…

This is probably because your X11 headers list XextAddDisplay() as
taking a const char * for argument 3, but SDL didn’t realize this for
some reason. It checks for that, maybe it failed for some reason.
Is there any chance this works if you run “make distclean” and then
rerun the configure script? Maybe it got confused because of the
originally-missing libxext-dev package?

I retried configure and make on a fresh copy of the source tree, so yeah!

I just installed Linux Mint 15 x64 and installed the following packages:
sudo apt-get install dh-autoreconf libasound2-dev libgl1-mesa-dev
libpulse-dev libudev-dev libdbus-1-dev libx11-dev libxcursor-dev
libxext-dev libxi-dev libxinerama-dev libxrandr-dev libxss-dev libxt-dev
libxxf86vm-dev
I then built SDL and created a .deb for Linux Mint with no problems.
Are you still having issues?On Thu, Jul 11, 2013 at 3:17 PM, Daniel Raufison wrote:

Ditto! Run into same problem recently, spent quite some time to figure
out what was missing. ./configure should warn and bail out.On Sat, 13 Jul 2013 10:04:35 +0200 Daniel Raufison wrote:

Okay, I added a check for Xext.h:
