[Fink-beginners] Trouble building xplanet

[David Filippi]

Hello,

I've recently installed Fink 0.4.1 atop a box running OS 10.2.1, and am running xfree86-base 4.2.0-12 with remarkably few problems.

I'm trying to build xplanet from source using the supplied autoconf script, but am running into trouble with including the graphics libraries. Of course, if I don't tell ./configure where to look for them, it can't find them at all. But when I do

./configure --includedir=/sw/include

here's what the output says:

checking for gif_lib.h... no
configure: warning: *** Native GIF support will not be included ***
checking for jpeglib.h... yes
checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... no
configure: warning: *** Native JPEG support will not be included ***
checking for png.h... yes
checking for pngconf.h... yes
checking for png_create_read_struct in -lpng... no
configure: warning: *** Native PNG support will not be included ***
checking for pnm.h... yes
checking for pnm_init in -lnetpbm... no
checking for pnm_init in -lpnm... no
configure: warning: *** Native PNM support will not be included ***
checking for tiff.h... yes
checking for tiffio.h... yes
checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... no
configure: warning: *** Native TIFF support will not be included ***
checking for GL/glut.h... yes
checking for glutInit in -lglut... no
checking for GL/gl.h... yes
checking for glBegin in -lGL... yes
checking for GL/glu.h... yes
checking for gluSphere in -lGLU... yes
configure: warning: *** Xplanet will be built without the -animate option ***

And indeed, xplanet builds and runs and can't open any image files at all.

I can't quite figure out what's happening here with my dilettante's knowledge of C - I'm a physician, not a software engineer. It looks like it's finding the included libraries OK (most of which got installed when I installed the GIMP - which works fine), but then balking at something it's expecting to find in their contents.

Can anyone enlighten me?
