On a Debian-based system, the following should install the related SD?OpenGL requirements:

apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev libsdl1.2debian-alsa libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2 libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-0 libsdl-ttf2.0-dev

I suppose it's really my fault for not RTFMing, the instructions are there in the docs... the thing was, I expected all the neccessary information to compile the package to be in the INSTALL file. I'm not sure if I'm right to expect that, but if the info had been there we wouldn't have had this problem.

OK, thanks for the feedback, I suspect you were lacking libsdl-mixer1.2-dev and libsdl-ttf2.0-dev which are not so common as the other ones. In fact, I should simply update the docs to just say, for instance "if you use a .deb distrib' -> apt-get install foo bar" and "if you use a .rpm distrib' -> rpm -U foo bar".

I leave this bug "in progress" until doc isn't updated.

Have a nice day,

ufoot.

You advised me to install the following packages in order to compile successfully:

libsdl-image1.2-dev
libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
libsdl-ttf2.0-dev
libsdl1.2-dev

I found that I had 3 of those 4 installed, my liquidwar6 --modules was:

enable-console: yes
enable-mod-gl: no
enable-mod-csound: no
enable-mod-ogg: no
enable-mod-http: no
enable-optimize: no
enable-allinone: no
enable-fullstatic: no
enable-gprof: no
enable-gcov: no
enable-valgrind: no

I can't remember which library I didn't have, but installing it fixed the problem. liquidwar6 --modules afterwards was:

enable-console: yes
enable-mod-gl: yes
enable-mod-csound: no
enable-mod-ogg: yes
enable-mod-http: no
enable-optimize: no
enable-allinone: no
enable-fullstatic: no
enable-gprof: no
enable-gcov: no
enable-valgrind: no

I can't get 0.0.6beta to install properly. If I compile it myself, I get the
following when I try to run it:
