Bug 48859 – snes9x 1.42-r1 can't find libpng (1.2.5-r4) during configuration: snapshot disabled.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sandro Bonazzola (RETIRED) 2004-04-24 02:34:08 UTC]

the configure script can't find libpng. The problem seems to be a autoconf macro that try to find the function png_jmpbuf in the png library.
Workaround: edit Makefile after configure, adding -DHAVE_LIBPNG in CCFLAGS, adding -lpng -lm -lz in LDLIBS.
If you want, you can also edit OPTIMISE for your system... the configure set it for gcc 2 flags...
I use: -O3 -mmmx -msse -fomit-frame-pointer -ftracer -march=pentium3
Avoid -ffast-math because the compilation fails.
The problem is also verified under slackware current. It must be a configure error.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge snes9x
2. see what config print out
3. try to use PrtScr when running snes9x

Actual Results:  
snes9x is built without screenshot support

Expected Results:  
snes9x is built with screenshot support

running latest gentoo ~x86 with linux-2.6.5, linux-header 2.6.5, udev, glibc
with nptl enabled, xorg-x11.

oh man, this ebuild just keeps getting uglier.  Please resync and try it with
version 1.3 of the ebuild.
