Version 0.8.17 was released this afternoon. It compiles and runs on my x86. I believe the developers have almost completely switched to their new website now. The older links are still valid, but I'm including an ebuild diff that reflects the new homepage and the download url listed there.

So, uh, it's more than 48 hours. Can you please bump to version 0.8.17?

I have version 1.2.9-r1, if that makes a difference (I would hope not since it's a pretty minor version difference). Not being a proficient Linux programmer and having very little experience with SDL I'm afraid I can't provide a solution. > emerge -pv libsdl These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

I wrote about Alex's issue on the glob2-devel mailinglist. We'll see what the glob2 devs say about it. We will eventually be able to see the thread at http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/glob2-devel/.

This bug is about the version bump, not any other issues. The version has been bumped in CVS so this bug is closed.
