Hi! 😀

I was trying to compile locally the source code (at a Debian stable based distribution).

Configure brings me the messages, that:
1) checking whether x86 dynamic cpu core will be enabled... no, and
2) checking whether x86 assembly fpu core will be enabled... no.

Are these 2 features are really needed?
Should I go on, or abort the entire process?

Console\s full output is here:

PS. One can see that SDL Net's headers are missing, but I don't care about network capabilities anyway.
TIA!!! 😀

Which version? Dynamic x86 support for x86_64 was added in 2019 (svn r4260).

Oh...I see! 😀

I am at an x64 distribution.
I was trying the latest stable version (which is much dated now), 0.74-3.
