Got the following error when trying to compile Syncterm in opensuse. I had no issues with synchronet, it installed fine after installing all the prerequisites. I downloaded Syncterm from source into my /home/cg/syncterm directory. I used the following commands.

Server-Linux:/home/cg/syncterm # cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.synchro.net:/cvsroot/sbbs co syncterm Server-Linux:/home/cg/syncterm # cd /home/cg/syncterm/src/syncterm Server-Linux:/home/cg/syncterm/src/syncterm # gmake

it did a lot of compiling, then crapped out here

Compiling ../sbbs3/zmodem.c
Compiling ../sbbs3/xmodem.c
Compiling st_crypt.c
In file included from st_crypt.c:9:0:
st_crypt.h:7:22: fatal error: cryptlib.h: No such file or directory
#include <cryptlib.h>
^
compilation terminated.
../build/Common.gmake:430: recipe for target 'gcc.linux.obj.debug-mt/st_crypt.o' failed gmake: *** [gcc.linux.obj.debug-mt/st_crypt.o] Error 1

Any help would be appreicated. Thanks

Where did you download the SyncTERM source from? Sounds like it's missing the 3rdp directory or you grabbed a very old source bundle that still requires Cryptlib to be installed separately.

I used the command from the syncterm website syncterm.bbsdev.net to download it from source from withen the terminal in opensuse "cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvsroot/sbbs co syncterm". Hope this helps. Should I have downloaded it from somewhere else. I thought the syncterm website would be the newest.

Thanks

Yep, that is the latest. Sounds like my syncterm alias is missing some bits.

The tarball that you can download from there should have everything in it and be fairly up-to-date as well... it's generated nightly unless my OS X box has hung.

I recommend that you must download the latest tarball source:

Ok, I got it to install, but I have to do some more reading. It will only load in the terminal, and the ansi is awefull. I remember reading somewhere I had to do something to correct the ansi, but I was assuming it would load from a desktop icon I placed there. When I try to load it not using the terminal, It puts a heavy load on the cpu monitor, and never loads. I know I have a lot to learn about using linux. is there a text I can read using and installing syncterm on linux to help a linux newby LOL. Anyway, thanks for your help in getting me this far.

That's very odd... I'm not sure how you could get that.

You could try focing X11 mode... by adding -iX to the command. That's about all I can think of.

Oh, you do need the SDL development files (and X11 development files) installed
on your computer to build it with SDL/X11 support. Depending on the distro, they're the -dev or -devel packages.

Yay, works like a charm. It was the SDL development files. Thanks for your help. I can see I have a lot to learn with linux, but that's with anything new. Again, Thanks
