Looking more closely... this isn't actually an issue with SDL itself.  A whole 
pile of simulators use SDL.  But BESM is different in that it looks for a 
specific SDL feature, namely TTF (font file) support.  

I don't have that either.  Googling turns up SDL_ttf as a "project" listed on 
the libsdl.org website, with a separate install kit.  
https://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf/ has the info.  It looks like you need 
to install that, either from a package, or from source.
