Hi guys...
Latest Alien::SDL comes with a libpng15 patch, the patch can be seen here:
https://github.com/PerlGameDev/Alien-SDL/blob/master/patches/SDL_image-1.2.10-libpng15.patch
I am currently trying to get Alien::SDL and SDL to work on cygwin.
Alien::SDL builds file on my machine. But without smpeg too. As far as
i can see it is just looking for a missing smpeg-config script.
I commited my changes right now:
https://github.com/PerlGameDev/Alien-SDL/compare/77bdac5%5E...77bdac5
But for the moment, I can compile SDL but most of the test fail and I
dont see any gfx window.
You may have a look at this too:

Cheers, FROGGS

Hi Kartik,
From where should I get the smpeg source ? (A tarball or a direct
link would be handy :-)
Hmm I had a url for this but I think we had trouble getting smpeg
working on vista. kmx can best help you here.
I first tried freshmeat, but couldn't find a download link anywhere
there ... then I googled up a page of ftp links which didn't seem
to work.
Finally I did an 'svn co' of the trunk at icculus, but 'autoreconf
-i' gave some warnings and an error about the missing macro
AM_PATH_SDL. It created a configure script anyway, so I did a
'./configure ...' just to see what would happen and it terminated
with:
./configure: AC_TYPE_SOCKLEN_T: command not found
./configure: line 15446: syntax error near unexpected token
`AM_PATH_SDL($SDL_VERSION,'
./configure: line 15446: `AM_PATH_SDL($SDL_VERSION,'
I'm on MS Windows Vista64.
I am sure Alien::SDL should compile this stuff for you. Did you try
to cpan it an use the interactive menu to choose for smpeg?
Are you using cygwin, or dmake/strawberry perl, or activestate?
The SDL_mixer library builds ok without smpeg, but I'd rather
include smpeg support if that's possible.
For smpeg on windows, again kmx is your best bet. i will cc his
email. FROGGS may also be able to help.
Also (unrelated to smpeg), do you know of any patched IMG_png.c
(from the SDL_image library) that caters for libpng15 ?
Not sure have you seen the CHANGELOG that comes with SDL_image or
gentoo/debian patches?
(No urgency with any of this, btw .... feel free to ignore.)
