Exult Forum

Hey folks,

trying to finally get Exult to work on my Debian Testing System brought me to the brink of despair.

I use the latest snapshot. ./configure in the sourcedir gives me

./configure: line 17382: PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG: command not found
./configure: line 17389: syntax error near unexpected token `$SDL_VERSION,'
./configure: line 17389: `AM_PATH_SDL($SDL_VERSION,'

pkg-configure which is mentioned in the first line is up to date, for the other two lines i dont have any clue what the problem could be.

Thank you for any piece of help.

Any errors when running autogen.sh? It sounds like you possibly ran autogen.sh with a few missing -dev packages.

Ah well autogen.sh had some errors, which i must have overseen before. A new try after a system update now doesnt give me the above errors - but instead of them i get these:

./configure: line 17880: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./configure: line 17880: ` XIPH_PATH_OGG('

missing ogg and vorbis libs and devel libs?

Thank you for your reply, but how to find out which packages may be missing? I am not the most experienced unix user and have no clue : /

Oh, i finally got it working. The missing libs where "libogg"play1-dev" and
"libfishsound1-dev", just in case anyone else expieriences this problem.


Thank you a lot!

Libfishsound? Strange... But good you got it run.
