problem installing SDL: cannot find input file: Makefile.in

[richy486]

I have checked out SDL from revision 2061, i ran ./autogen.sh but when i ran:

Code: Select all

$ LDFLAGS="-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser" ./configure --host psp --prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix) 

I get the error:

Code: Select all

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: error: cannot find input file: Makefile.in

and Makefile.in is not in my SDL directory.

(Edit)
this is the output from ./autogen.sh :

Code: Select all

$ ./autogen.sh ~/SDL

Now you are ready to run ./configure

I'm not sure if this it ok, is ./autogen.sh ment to generate Makefile.in?

So has anyone been able to solve this problem?
No matter what revision i`m trying to compile, i`m still getting the same error. Could it be Automake ?
Any ideas?

Edit:
In fact it was automake, to be more specific ->version 1.10
Tried it with 1.9 and it worked.

im getting the same error. how to you tell Cygwin to use Automake 1.9?

thankx

[powARman]

specify WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.9 when running autogen.sh

Code: Select all

WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.9 ./autogen.sh

[psiko_scweek]

is there something wrong with the SDL libraries? I cannot get SDL_gfx or SDL_image to install without having the same errors as above. I tried the entire WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.9, but that still didnt solve the problem. I didnt have these problems when I installed them a few months ago, did something happen?

I am having exactly the same error.

Can anyone help me?
