<title>Problem compiling SDL for GC-Linux</title>
<description> I try to compile SDL on GC-Linux for the Wii. I downloaded the libsdl tarball from the CVS page at the GC-Linux sourceforge site and put the directory into /root/src/libsdl. (I also tried downloading with CVS directly with the same results.)

Following that I downloaded SDL-1.2.8 and put that as well in /root/src/SDL-1.2.8. Then copied the files from root/src/libsdl into root/src/SDL-1.2.8.

When running Automake 1.10 in root/src/SDL-1.2.8 I get the message:


whiite:~/src/SDL-1.2.8# ./autogen.sh
Generating build information using aclocal, automake and autoconf
This may take a while ...
acinclude.m4:363: the serial number must appear before any macro definition
/usr/share/automake-1.10/am/depend2.am: am__fastdepCCAS does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
/usr/share/automake-1.10/am/depend2.am: The usual way to define `am__fastdepCCAS&amp;#039; is to add `AM_PROG_AS&amp;#039;
/usr/share/automake-1.10/am/depend2.am: to `configure.in&amp;#039; and run `aclocal&amp;#039; and `autoconf&amp;#039; again.
Makefile.am:88: use `install-data-hook&amp;#039; or `install-exec-hook&amp;#039;, not `install-hook&amp;#039;
Now you are ready to run ./configure
whiite:~/src/SDL-1.2.8#

When running ./configure --without-x --disable-video-x11 ...etc.... the following appears:


config.status: WARNING: src/endian/Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
config.status: creating src/file/Makefile

When running make I get:

cd . &amp;&amp; automake-1.10 --foreign
/usr/share/automake-1.10/am/depend2.am: am__fastdepCCAS does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL

How is it possible to compile SDL for GC-Linux?
