I'm posting them now because I need some help to fix the remaining issues. Regarding sdl-union: * This package isn't useful for users, only developers. Should I keep it private so that it doesn't show up in package searches? * I wasn't sure how to fill out the metadata fields. Thoughts on what they should be? Regarding guile-sdl: * This package doesn't build. However, if I build with --keep-failed and run `make clean && make` in /tmp/nix-.../guile-sdl-0.5.1, the build is successful. Does anyone have any thoughts about why this might be? I really need some help here. The motivation for these patches (and my previous freeimage) patch, are to finish up packaging all of the dependencies for Sly, my game engine. Thanks in advance for the help/feedback! -- David Thompson Web Developer - Free Software Foundation - http://fsf.org GPG Key: 0FF1D807 Support the FSF: https://fsf.org/donate
