Hi,

I have just uploaded a Windows binary :) (And didn't know why SourceForge doesn't display it)

Hello acme_pjz,

acme_pjz {l Wrote}:I have just uploaded a Windows binary :) (And didn't know why SourceForge doesn't display it)

I've put the link in the first post.

I'm trying to make Linux packages (.rpm, .deb) but it keeps failing for a lot because of the CMakeLists.txt file.
Do you by any chance now howto solve the problem with libarchive?
Currently the only ones that build are openSUSE 11.4, 12.1 and Mandriva 2011.

This did seem to do the trick but isn't a real solution.
It assumes libarchive is installed but doesn't check it:

Unfortunately I don't know :( Under Windows I need to download the source code of libarchive from official website and compile it... [in fact I need to download libarchive svn code because 2.8.5 has a bad bug of extraction path in Windows]

Hello MCMic,

MCMic {l Wrote}:Here is an ArchLinux package : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=55582

Looks good, only the some dependencies seem missing.
Or does sdl automatically pull in SDL_ttf and SDL_mixer, etc...?

I added these dependencies.
After installing it won't launch, it says "FATAL ERROR: Failed to configure paths."
What did I do wrong? (message error is not really explicit, what path?)

If you want a system-wide installation, which a package indirectly is, you'll need to run cmake like this:
{l Code}: {l Select All Code}
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%buildroot/usr .

The %buildroot is an rpm variable.

Look at the pkgbuild, I'm already doing this : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/me/m ... w/PKGBUILD

I see, strange, it also happens to the openSUSE 12.1 packages I just built.
We'll have to look into this problem.

Hello all,

Found the problem, sometime ago the data path has changed to include the "data/" folder.
This wasn't changed in the config.h.in file.

It's fixed in the latest SVN (r178). ;)

MCMic {l Wrote}:Thanks, the package works :-)

The openSUSE packages work fine now.

But we should do something about the CMakeLists.txt regarding libarchive and curl.
Currently my builds for Debian 5.0, 6.0; Fedora 14; Ubuntu 8.04, 9.04; 9.10; Mandriva 2009, 2009.1, 2010, 20010.1 fail on one or both of them. :(

Hello MCMic,

MCMic {l Wrote}:What is the problem with curl and libarchive?

Even if the development headers of those libraries are installed cmake will give an error.
This is because most of the distro's don't seem to distribute the cmake modules for libcurl or libarchive.

One example here:
http://forum.freegamedev.net/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=2423#p24961
The solution given there isn't the best one.

Hello all,

I think I've fixed the problem. :cool:
In SVN revision 179 I've added two CMake modules: FindLibArchive.cmake and FindSDL_gfx.cmake.
Thanks to the documentation of CMake:
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake:How_To_Find_Libraries#Using_external_libraries_that_CMake_doesn.27t_yet_have_modules_for

I'm going to try it out on the openSUSE Buildservice.
If it works I'll update the source package.

Hello all,

Problem is indeed fixed, I updated the source package.
There are now packages for:
    * openSUSE 11.3, 11.4, 12.1
    * Mandriva 2009, 2009.1, 2010, 2010.1, 2011
    * Fedora 14, 15, 16
And of course a package for archlinux, by MCMic.

Note: I'm still trying to get the builds for the debian based distro's to work.
The openSUSE BuildService doesn't provide the Ubuntu Universe repository, and that's where the SDL libraries are in. :(

Ya, the documentation of CMake has been very helpful to me too.

What should I do? I read all the comments here, and followed all the intructions, but it doesn't seem to work for me. :( it still won't launch. Thanks in advance for those who will help.

Hello ihanna,

Which operating system are you using (Linux/Windows/Mac) and if Linux which distro (Ubuntu/Fedora/etc). Also which version of MeAndMyShadow are you using? V0.2 RC1 is old and 0.3 in the newest version. Did you compile the game from source or are you using some binary release? Finally are you getting that same "FATAL ERROR: Failed to configure paths." error message or some other?

Please give some more information about your situation so we can help you better and easier. Thanks! :)
