Compile Error In Ubuntu Linux

[Kurisu]

Problems Fixed, But I'll leave the post in case anyone else has similar issues.


I'm installing 0.8.1 at the moment, and received the following errors while trying to compile

Appears to be something wrong with my alsa... Which in all honesty I'm not surprised by. Suggested fixes?

Error message:

Solution: I went into my Package manager and added any Packages that looked important (In synaptic, any with the ubuntu logo next to them, always the Dev versions)

Fixed it right up.

Although there is a workaround for you, it is much more beautiful to fix this in configure.ac and then give error messages already in configure.


...
if test "$enable_clanSound" != "no"; then
echo "Checking for clanSound stuff"
echo "============================"
if test "$WIN32" = "yes"; then
CLANLIB_CHECK_LIB(dsound,[#include <dsound.h>
int main() { return 0; } void used_stuff() {DirectSoundCreate(NULL, NULL, NULL);}],
clanSound, [ *** Cannot find directsound libs],[-ldxguid -lwinmm])
else
dnl OSS header check
AC_CHECK_HEADER([sys/soundcard.h], [], CLANLIB_DISABLE_MODULE(clanSound,[ *** Cannot find sys/soundcard.h]))
+++ AC_CHECK_HEADER([alsa/asoundlib.h], [], CLANLIB_DISABLE_MODULE(clanSound,[ *** Cannot find alsa/asoundlib.h]))
fi
fi
...

The +++ is the new line that I want to add. ok?

The package you want is libasound2-dev, which is the ALSA library.
