Hi Russel,

thanks for your input.

Ok.

 With the current options, e-uae uses OSS as its sound target. As far as I'm 
 aware OSS is considered obsolete.

Ack, that should be alsa at least.

 The current Debian configure line includes both the options '--with-x' and 
 '--with-sdl-gfx'. I'm pretty sure

Ok, I have tested some configurations and found

--enable-threads --with-sdl-gfx --with-sdl-sound --enable-scsi-device

is leaner, works quite well with my tests and should address all your
problems.

Thx,

Stephan

Bug#583897: e-uae: Please use better build options

2010-05-31 Thread Francis Russell
Package: e-uae
Version: 0.8.29-WIP4-8
Severity: normal


Thanks for maintaining this package!

e-uae has the ability to present SCSI devices on the host system to the 
emulated Amiga (typically the CD-ROM
drive). This requires the '--enable-scsi-device' flag and would add a build 
dependency on linux-libc-dev.
Even with this option compiled in, it still requires an option in the 
config-file to enable so I don't believe
adding it will break current configurations. I have no idea why it isn't 
enabled by default in the configure
script, perhaps because it is Linux-specific functionality.

These other two are closer to wishlist:

With the current options, e-uae uses OSS as its sound target. As far as I'm 
aware OSS is considered obsolete.
ALSA sound support can be enabled with '--with-alsa' or sound via SDL with 
'--with-sdl-sound'. I've only ever
used --with-alsa myself.

The current Debian configure line includes both the options '--with-x' and 
'--with-sdl-gfx'. I'm pretty sure
that uae graphics back-ends are mutually exclusive, making that line confusing. 
At the very least, when
compiled against one graphics back-end options related to the other in the uae 
config file will cause e-uae to
complain about unknown config entries.

Regards,

Francis
