Could some wise guru make (hehe, configure and install...) a guide how to install, configure and make it work from source? Because I'm getting error after error and nothing and nada at the end. Probably I miss some package. Which packages exactly I need I cannot find out. My repositories show more than 20 packages with libsdl in their name with and without dev and so on. My steps were as described in the file INSTALL from dosbox_mb5_src.tar.gz :
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
And that's when I get lots of problems:
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../include -I/usr/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -g -O2 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -MT setup.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/setup.Tpo -c -o setup.o setup.cpp

The reason, why I dont just take the readymade .deb package, is it does not have the real IPX network possibility. And this is the only way for me to get it work together with a bunch of old DOS computers at a lanparty (I dont own a 10-15 years old computer, just a poor, modern laptop).
And all other solutions are for base system - windows. Such a peace of software I don't have nor wish to have. My current system is Debian Squeeze (testing). I had obtained Dosbox from Debian Sid (unstable) branch. And it works very well, just it does not have real IPX connectivity.
