It is output when you type ‘make’.  Please provide ALL of that output and I can 
explain more about what is going on.

Oddly enough that is also required by mame.

Where is the build log stored?

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<http://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.
