I'd still recommend redhat-config packages to make this easier. Start it and select the development packages. However with rawhide gcc, it may complain.

You're sure you have the SDL packages installed? Does /usr/bin/sdl-config exist on your system? Let's see if it exists. $ ll /usr/bin/sdl-config - -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1546 Feb 10 11:14 /usr/bin/sdl-config > So I'm still missing something, right? Yes, but I don't know what it might be. /usr/bin/sdl-config should be installed by the SDL-devel package. I have the following SDL packages installed: SDL_image-devel-1.2.2-5 SDL-1.2.5-3 SDL_net-1.2.4-5 SDL_image-1.2.2-5 SDL_net-devel-1.2.4-5 SDL-devel-1.2.5-3 SDL_mixer-1.2.4-7 SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.4-7 If you have those packages installed, please verify them: rpm -qa | grep SDL | xargs rpm -V > Elton (... not the best student in the world, but I'm *willing to > learn*!!!) Then your halfway there! ;) Now, if it still fails to build, try: "rpmbuild -bb tuxracer.spec | tee build.log" And mail me the full build.log file. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+yrFgn/07WoAb/SsRAp3oAJoCTkgku8mQ0yA1gKT+qPweSkxZYACfUeYH DDMtxbUXPoCEZ8VDHpbUej8= =+Nvy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
