trying to build a dosbox with the mt32 patch so i don't have the pain of having to start munt before playing games.

Anyway, if i can solve this; does dosbox source have a debian rules file? (I want to upload the source to a ppa i have so other people using ubuntu can download a mt32 enabled build somewhere)

Check config.log I would say.
You can get a debian rules file from the debian package

check the SDL.h file and see what the version is inside ?
(it is probably at /usr/include/SDL/)

/** @name Version Number

*/
/*@{*/
#define SDL_MAJOR_VERSION 1
#define SDL_MINOR_VERSION 2
#define SDL_PATCHLEVEL 14

(from /usr/include/SDL/SDL_version.h)

Maybe a /usr/local override?

ls /usr/local/include/
SDL SDL2

And
cat /usr/local/include/SDL/SDL_version.h | less

/* Printable format: "%d.%d.%d", MAJOR, MINOR, PATCHLEVEL
*/
#define SDL_MAJOR_VERSION 1
#define SDL_MINOR_VERSION 3
#define SDL_PATCHLEVEL 0

The sdl2 dir:
/* Printable format: "%d.%d.%d", MAJOR, MINOR, PATCHLEVEL
*/
#define SDL_MAJOR_VERSION 2
#define SDL_MINOR_VERSION 0
#define SDL_PATCHLEVEL 0

Neither of which has '1' as SDL_MINOR_VERSION though

the local override is verion 1.3.0 So select the right sdl to use
Think there is some SDLCONFIG=... or SDL-CONFIG= variable that you can set before running configure or use ./configure --help to find some sdl specific flags

Actually, it doesn't...

"gcc version 4.6.3
...
configure:3378: gcc -V >&5
gcc: error: unrecognized option '-V'
gcc: fatal error: no input files
"
one of many gcc errors on the configure. Can dosbox compile with this version?

edit: eh, it built

BTW:
https://launchpad.net/dosbox

This project is hosted at SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox/). The Launchpad project exists to provide a Bazaar mirror of the official Subversion repository. If any DOSBox developer wishes to take control of the Launchpad project, please contact me.

Qbix, this is strange (to me)
This source deb, which i stole the deb directory for my launchpad recipe;
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/d … 3.debian.tar.gz

Doesn't build a executable when it's built.
It seems incomplete, for instance the
dosbox.install file doesn't have a location for the executable or the rules file is just
#!/usr/bin/make -f
%:
dh $@

But that is obviously not running when i try to build it with pbuilder after copying the debian dir into a dosbox clone and using debuild. Is that *actually* the debian dir that is being used to build the distro debs?

edit: never mind, problem between keyboard and chair

edit2: nope - what's not being called (even on the default rules like above) is autogen.sh... i'm confused, wasn't that supposed to be called by default?

edit3: missing automake in debian/control... how did it build before in the ubuntu buildbots?

The SVN source (directly from the SVN) has less files than an official release.
The official releases come with autogen.sh already executed.

Well that explains it i guess. It's just strange that the debian 'patch' actually requires a additional manual step. Guess this is actually a dh problem because even if autotools is in the control file, autogen.sh is not called except if you add a override and do it yourself.

nah, the debian patch is created to work with official releases.
