Compiling pingus error.

[bsdnewbie999]

I got these message while running scons.

What does it means? I have all the libraries installed.

If you bother to read your error messages before posting, you would save yourself a great deal of time. Look:

/bin/sh: sdl-config: not found

sdl-config is a component of devel/sdl, which is apparently not installed.

Do you have SDL installed? if yes, are you sure that /usr/local/bin in your $PATH?

Also, games/pingus is already in the -CURRENT ports tree... so it might be easier to utilize that, albeit in an unsupported manner.

Scons appears to be looking in /opt for some reason, that directory doesn't typically exist on OpenBSD..

Clearly you're having an unusually difficult time getting familiar with OpenBSD.

Not as posted in this thread, as as far as I can tell. Perhaps bsdnewbie edited his post? Caught early enough, there will be no edit flagged.

[BSDfan666]

This was my mistake, I was caught off guard by /usr/obj... sorry folks.

bsdfan:

This looks like WRKOBJDIR has been set, and that this failure occured during the make fake step.

bsdnewbie:

games/pingus is not available for 4.5 or earlier releases. It is -current, only. If you are running -release, please read FAQ 15.4.1. Then read it again.

I forgot to install the sdl packages. Now I have it installed but still facing another problem.

I double checked, I already install libiconv package this time but I got this error.

bsdnewbie999. let's get this straight once & for all.

Section 15.4.1 of the FAQ states:

15.4.1 - I'm getting all kinds of crazy errors. I just can't seem to get this ports stuff working at all.

It is very likely that you are using a system and ports tree which are not in sync.

The CVS log showing when pingus was commited to the ports tree:

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvswe...ingus/Makefile

...states that it was added 14 March 2009. OpenBSD 4.5-release was tagged in CVS around ~1-2 March 2009. As jggimi has already stated, unless you are running 4.5-current, pingus has not been verified on any previous version of OpenBSD, & no one will bother doing so. You are on your own if you want to run pingus on anything older than 4.5-current.

In case there is any question, let me repeat myself: You are on your own if you want to run pingus on anything older than 4.5-current.

If you are confused by the different versions of OpenBSD: -release, -stable, & -current, study Section 5.1:
