See the file config.log for the *** exact error that occured. This usually means SDL was incorrectly installed *** or that you have moved SDL since it was installed.

Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13-r1 2. try to install media-libs/sdl-net-1.2.7 Expected Results: sdl-net installation should proceed normally.

You've changed the use flags out from under portage without rebuilding with --newuse. do emerge --newuse -vuD world if that doesn't rebuild libsdl do that manually.
