Description Tom Noonan 2010-11-21 00:51:09 UTC
Dosbox fails to build on a x86 system with SDL due to the following error: "'struct SDL_SysWMinfo' has no member named 'info'"

I'm guessing this may be due to my having built libsdl without X support.  However as I want to use sdl for framebuffer support I don't need it to have X support.

media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13-r1  USE="alsa audio fbcon joystick oss video -X -aalib -custom-cflags -dga -directfb -esd -ggi -libcaca -nas -opengl -pulseaudio -svga -tslib -xinerama -xv"

My goal here is to have dosbox run in the framebuffer, which is rumored to be possible.  If dosbox can do this, than perhaps the X use flag needs to be used to undef the window manager code.  Otherwise, perhaps the dosbox ebuild should require libsdl to be built with X support.  I am just speculating at this point, however.

Reproducible: Always

Changing the severity as I'm betting this is ultimately caused by me USE flag choices.

Fixed, requesting media-libs/libsdl to be built with X use flags.
Thanks for report.
