[glob2-devel] libgag/src/SDL_ttf.[ch]

[David Schmitt]

Hi *! 

While looking through the sourcecode of alpha19, I found verbatim copies of 
SDL_tff.c and SDL_ttf.h from SDL's upstream which are compiled and linked 
statically into the glob2 binary via libgag.

Since the Wiki at [1] lists SDL_ttf as a requirement - and I am in favor of 
using external libs instead of local copies, I tried to remove the two and 
replace them with a link against libsdl_ttf and it worked without problems. 
The patch is attached. Someone with more auto* foo than me should probably 
improve on the -lSDL_ttf in src/Makefile.am

This also trades a (packaging) dependency on libfreetype's ABI against one on 
libsdl_ttf's. 


Alternatively I could change the wiki to refer to freetype instead of SDL_ttf.


Regards, David
