Re: [Rpcemu] Allegro not installed Mint 17

Thanks for the idea. I removed all bar liballegro4.2 and
liballegro4.2-plugin-jack, when Synaptic removed liballegro4 it also
took out liballegro4-dev.

As liballegro4-dev requires liballegro4, in order to get the ...dev I
downloaded liballegro4.2-dev, which depends on libx11 which depends on
libx11-6 which is already installed but not recognised by Synaptic...so
back to software manager to install liballegro4-dev and liballegro4.

The question is why is the liballegro4 installation present (according
to Software Manager and Synaptic and apt-get) yet not present when I
attempt the compilation:

./configure: line 4634: ` AM_PATH_ALLEGRO(, , as_fn_error $? "building
RPCemu requires Allegro to be installed" "$LINENO" 5)'


The upgrade to Mint 17 was otherwise fairly painless, but this has me
stumped.

Sean.
