yossarian Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Are you logged in as root? From the terminal try 'su root' and then provide the root's password before running the ./configure command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medo3891 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 He doesn't need to be root neither when doing ./configure nor make only when doing make install. To use ./configure you need to cd to the folder you extracted from the tar.bz2. If you are using konqueror then open the extracted folder then open Tools>open terminal then ./configure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 You don't need to ./configure anything for sauerbraten. Simply d/l the Linux tar.bz file from here: cubeengine.com/files Extract it to your ~/home directory, cd to the new directory and as user do chmod +x sauerbraten_unix then do ./sauerbraten_unix to start the game.

Abinash Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 /bin/sh: sdl-config: command not found/bin/sh: g++: command not found make: *** [shared/tools.o] Error 127 [root@localhost src]# exit exit [abinash@localhost src]$ cd.. [abinash@localhost sauerbraten]$ ./sauerbraten_unix Your platform does not have a pre-compiled Sauerbraten client. Please follow the following steps to build a native client: 1) Ensure you have the SDL, SDL-image, SDL-mixer, and OpenGL libraries installed. 2) Change directory to src/ and type "make install". 3) If the build succeeds, return to this directory and run this script again. [abinash@localhost sauerbraten]$ these are the last few lines which I had encounter, while trying to make install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 For sdl-config you need to do: urpmi libSDL-devel for g++: urpmi gcc-c++ and try to compile again. There might be more packages, but I can't see any higher than the SDL line to see if there were other dependencies to install to get this compiled. Check the README file it should tell you what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Do you want to compile this game from source for some reason? I only ask because you can d/l the compiled game and play it as instructed in my previous post. You could then add it to your menu with the menu editor.

Artificial Intelligence Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 The game needs -devel package of libsdl1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-image1.2 libgl1-mesa libglu1-mesa besides compiling tool. Then; tar jxfv sauerbraten_2007_12_24_assassin_edition_linux.tar.bz2 cd sauerbraten/src make install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
