Bug 483

Summary: issue in libSDL.la
Product: SDL Reporter: alternativemass
Component: buildAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: minor    
Priority: P2 Keywords: target-1.2.14
Version: 1.2.12   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Windows (XP)   

Description alternativemass 2007-08-26 04:44:48 UTC
In the 'SDL-devel-1.2.12-mingw32.tar.gz' download 
'libSDL.la' has the following line of code at the bottom

libdir='/Users/hercules/tmp/SDL-1.2.12/lib'

It seems to cause the following warning when I make SDL_ttf.
libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/local/lib/libSDL.la' was moved.

I'm guessing the value should be something along the lines of libdir='/usr/local/lib' 
(but this is really out of my area of understanding, and the make file for the SDL mingw version offers a few options on where to install to)

Tagging this bug with "target-1.2.14" so we can try to resolve it for SDL 1.2.14.

Please note that we may choose to resolve it as WONTFIX. This tag is largely so we have a comprehensive wishlist of bugs to examine for 1.2.14 (and so we can close bugs that we'll never fix, rather than have them live forever in Bugzilla).

Comment 2 Sam Lantinga 2009-10-17 11:09:57 UTC
This is fixed for the SDL 1.2.14 release.

Also note that the recommended way to install from this archive is to run "make native", which will install it in /usr and fix up the paths in sdl-config and libSDL.la
