TroubleshootingI get a compiler error in GImage.cpp about png.h not found.
Is the libpng3-dev package properly installed?
I get a compiler error about sdl-config not found, or SDL/SDL.h not found.
Is the libsdl1.2-dev package properly installed?
How do I build optimized binaries?
make opt
How do I build binaries with debug symbols?
make dbg
I'm trying to link GClasses.a with my app, and I get a linker error about png stuff not being found.
You need to add "-lpng" after "GClasses.a" to your linking command. Yes, order matters on this line.
Where can I get more specific help?
You can ask a question at our forum. If you
post a question and you do not get a speedy response, please email me. Sometimes the email that is supposed
to notify me that there is a new forum post is incorrectly classified as spam and discarded. (That's ironic,
since I'm trying to develop better ML algorithms, isn't it?) My email address is on the main page.
When I run some of the graphical apps, I get an error message about a "bad adaptive filter type" or "extra compressed data".
This appears to be caused by an old bug in the
libpng3-dev package. It does not repro with newer
versions. You should probably update your OS.
