Bug 40961 – media-libs/sdl-gfx puts headers into /usr/include instead of /usr/include/SDL

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Dmitry Platonov 2004-02-09 05:58:26 UTC]

I think /usr/include/SDL is right place for this headers.
I tried to fix it, and it seems to work.

Created attachment 25257 [details]
Ebuild with changed includedir

[Comment 2 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2004-02-09 10:40:22 UTC]

How is the current behavior a bug?  This appears to be the way SDL_gfx  is intended to be installed by the upstream author.

[Comment 3 Dmitry Platonov 2004-02-09 10:48:37 UTC]

i do not know exaclty, but other sdl* headers on my system are installed into /usr/include/SDL, and glGo-0.0.6 (not in portage) fails to build because it searches for sdl-gfx headers in /usr/include/SDL. May be someone should contact an author of SDL-gfx and ask what is right place to put headers.

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2004-02-09 10:53:25 UTC]

yeah, all sdl libs that i know of install into SDL/

sdl-gfx seems to be the exception ... could we check some games to see if they check for 'SDL_gfxPrimitives.h' and then 'SDL/SDL_gfxPrimitives.h' ?

if so i think we should move them ...

here is complete (i hope) list of .ebuilds referencing to sdl-gfx
app-emulation/uae/uae-0.8.22.ebuild
dev-perl/sdl-perl/sdl-perl-1.20.0.ebuild
dev-python/soya/soya-0.6.1.ebuild
dev-python/soya/soya-0.3.1.ebuild
dev-python/soya/soya-0.5.ebuild
dev-ruby/rudl/rudl-0.7.ebuild
games-puzzle/xpired/xpired-1.22.ebuild

Can anyone test if this packages builds ok with proposed .ebuild?

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2004-02-10 14:26:21 UTC]

i e-mailed upstream and this is what they sent back:
From: Andreas Schiffler <[e-mail]>

No reason - just ancient Makefiles from SDL-1.1x/tests vintage.

I'll check it out and adjust. 
Thanks for the tip.
-----------------
i guess i'll wait for another reply back before updating the ebuild

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2004-05-25 07:08:37 UTC]

sdl-gfx-2.0.11 does this now

[Comment 8 Dmitry Platonov 2004-05-25 10:54:39 UTC]

Ok, this new version places headers in proper directory.
