Exult Forum

Hello,

I'm currently running Exult 1.2-15 binary package downloaded from Synaptic Package manager in Debian Squeeze kernel 2.6.39bpo-amd64. It works great. I then wanted to try exult-1.4.9rc1 by compiling from source, so I downloaded the tarball.

I made sure to download the the dev packages for libsdl, vorbis, libogg, etc. I was able to run the autogen.sh script fine. It returns:
"You are now ready to run ./configure"

When I rung ./configure, however, I get the following error:
./configure: line 17134: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./configure: line 17134: ` XIPH_PATH_OGG('

Perhaps the path for the XIPH OGG audio codec is undefined? Just in case, I also installed miscellaneous dev packages for OGG like 'libfishsound1-dev'

Any ideas of how I should proceed?

Thanks,
-Jun

First I'd suggest you get the SVN package and make sure you have pkgconfig installed as well. You can also point ./configure at the ogg and SDL prefix, I guess one of them acts up.
