libSDL_mixer.la and GAMBAS

English Programming/Scripting
1

hi,

i tried to install the GAMBAS, an implementation of a graphical development environment based on a BASIC interpreter in openSuse11.0

i encounter a problem in “configure,make,make install” procedure.

There was a problem with file /usr/lib/libSDL_mixer.la.

make script failed due to wrong lib path of this file.

i open it in kwrite /usr/lib/libSDL_mixer.la and change
the line

dependency_libs=’ -L/usr/local/lib /usr/local/lib/libSDL.la -lm -ldl -lpthread’

to correct path

dependency_libs=’ -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libSDL.la -lm -ldl -lpthread’

and my problem was solved.

Then i run again “configure,make,make install” script and finally i installed GAMBAS
in openSuse11.0

i report this issue as a bug in libSDL_mixer.la

Regards,
Demosthenes Koptsis

  • A Gambas package is available from the opensuse-education project, you don’t need to compile it.
  • The correct place to report bugs is https://bugzilla.novell.com/, no this forum
  • openSUSE 11.0 version of /usr/lib/libSDL_mixer.la includes
dependency_libs=' -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libSDL.la -lpthread /usr/lib/libmikmod.la -ldl /usr/lib/libaudiofile.la -lm'

if your file has anything else it means you overwrote the original openSUSE version. So there isn’t any real bug.

you do not need “la” files, whatever needs them , is wrong.
