This is the error i get when I go to compile it per the instructions on UGA:

bump

It appears that you need the SDL_net library. Try installing the libsdl-net1.2-dev package. Feisty may have a different version in it's repositories.

Thanks that worked!

Yeah I forgot that we have that dependency. Its used for a small function that checks online to see if a new version of the game is available, but we aren't using it yet. Glad you got it to compile. :)


If anyone wants to make an official Ubuntu package for Allacrost, please stop by and let our team know. Our Debian packages aren't playing nice with Ubuntu at the moment because of libc version differences and the fact that we now require the Luabind library.

Also had to find a library called luabind...then it worked.
