Compilation Error (driver .so's)

[Stefan Kriwanek (Divan)]

On linux, none of the driver's shared object files get built, so the game quits with:
0 video drivers found

It seems to me that the make process does instead build the static libraries
libvideodrv.a libaudiodrv.a
and 'make install' copies them to
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/libvideodrv.a
-- Installing: /usr/local/lib/libaudiodrv.a

Though, s25client (DriverWrapper.cpp) looks for shared object files in
/usr/local/share/s25rttr/driver/video/*.so

BTW, 'make install' and 'cmake.sh' ignore my cmake.sh arguments --prefix=/usr/share or --prefix=. and always try to install to /usr/local

Hi,

you have to install at least

libsdl1.2-dev
and
libsdl_mixer1.2-dev

to be able to build the SDL video and SDL audio driver module

on non debian/ubuntu systems this developer-packages will be named different

[FloSoft (flosoft)]

and those static libraries are only helper-libraries for those dynamic modules. perhaps we should change them to _NOINST so they will not be installed with make install, because theyre normally only needed to build those dynamic ones

[Stefan Kriwanek (Divan) (dev-stefankriwanek)]

Wow, I spent hours on it not realizing that I didn't had those dev-packages.

Maybe you should add the names of all dev-packages needed to INSTALL?

[FloSoft (flosoft)]

moving it to demophobie: he should add and update the "INSTALL" file ...

[Stefan Kriwanek (Divan) (dev-stefankriwanek)]

He did it months ago ;)
