Build under ubuntu 9.10

Hi,

I'm trying to build FIFE under Ubuntu 9.10. I'm stuck because of the following error:

g++ -o build/engine/release/swigwrappers/python/py_fife_wrap.os -c -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -fPIC -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -DHAVE_OPENGL -DHAVE_ZIP -DLOG_ENABLED -I/opt/include -I/usr/include/vorbis -I/usr/include/SDL -I/usr/include/python2.6 -Iext/install/include -Iengine/core build/engine/release/swigwrappers/python/fife_wrap.cc

Any ideas?

AFAIK using your own libpng isn't working under linux

use a

Code:

scons ext

beforehand to build the patched one shipped with FIFE. (you'll need to do that anyway in order to compile our patched version of guichan, too)

cheers,
