Hey,

I’m having a bit of trouble getting ZSNES (v. 1.51) to install. I have all of the programs it asks to be installed installed. When I type “./configure” as it tells me to in the install readme, it works fine, but when I type “make” it gives me this:

Izaak@linux-ey7i:~/Games/zsnes_1_51/src> make
g++  -pipe -I. -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include -D__UNIXSDL__  -I/usr/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT  -DNCURSES -D__OPENGL__ -march=native -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -s -fno-rtti -o tools/fileutil.o -c tools/fileutil.cpp

tools/strutil.h:34: error: ‘strncasecmp’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [tools/strutil.o] Error 1

I have all of the programs it asks to be installed installed

Here are my system specs:
OpenSUSE 11.2 with KDE 4.3.1
Dell Inspiron B130

Any help you guys could give me on this would really help.

It is an error in the source itself and not in the set up.
See if you can get the correct version or post these details at their site.

why not use the rpm?

Software.openSUSE.org

for 11.1 but will work in 11.2 as well.

Unless you use 64bit

I have tried to get another version of ZSNES, but the same thing continues to happen.

Software.openSUSE.org

for 11.1 but will work in 11.2 as well.

I got the rpm from there for i586, but when I try to install it, I get this message right after YaST finishes loading.

“Following packages haven’t been found on the medium:”

I would have pasted the code that it output in the message, but it was too long, and exceeded the 15,000 character limit.

Any other ideas?

why not try a direct install without yast or zypper.
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/RedDwarf:/branches:/Emulators/openSUSE_11.1/i586/zsnes-1.51-9.1.i586.rpm
just use rpm:
#sudo rpm -U zsnes-1.51-9.1.i586.rpm

and tell us if there are some unsatisfied dependencies.
