ika compile problem

Mystinar · #1 18th April 2007, 02:16 PM

I've been trying to get this game creation program called "ika" to compile. However, whenever I do so, I get an error saying that the command "python2.4-config" could not be found. Here's how it is used in the SConstruct file:

Code:

    # *nix specific configuration
    libpath('/usr/X11R6/lib')
    libs('GL', 'GLU', 'util')
    env.ParseConfig('python2.4-config --cflags')
    env.ParseConfig('python2.4-config --libs')

Apparently, Fedora Core doesn't use the python2.4-config script. What does it use in its place?

Do you have python and python-devel both installed?

Yes. I have both packages installed.

By any chance are you BobbyJim?

Yes, I am BobbyJim.

It would save a lot of time if, when you have tried the apps forum, you would post a link. That way we can get a better idea of what is going on.

Okay.

I am not finding anything useful. Have you tried pygame? It is in extras.

I have pygame. I wanted to use ika because I didn't feel like coding an entire game engine. But since I'm having such difficulty with getting ika to compile, I might as well go with pygame.
