re-emerge "media-libs/libsdl-1.2.11" fixed the problem here.
(In reply to comment #3) > re-emerge "media-libs/libsdl-1.2.11" fixed the problem here. > worked for me too.
I reproduced the bug. This usually happens if it was long after your last system update. I'll add a note to the ebuild for now.
I've added an informational message about this issue. Reopen if you want to propose an alternative method.
I've been commenting the issue and I'll change it (next week) so that the ebuild detects if the compilation failed. If it did, it will parse config.log to see if it was the libsdl issue and show a detailed message about how to solve it. The fix affects version 3.5.6 and above.
What did you find as the problem, Ioannis? Broken sdl install is not a KDE issue, I'd say.
Ioannis, ping? :-)
Eh; +1 on Comment #8.
