How to install all SDL libraries in Ubuntu 14.04?
For installing it:
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-2.0
and for installing everything necessary to build programs that use SDL:
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev
You can search for all available instances of libsld1.2 with something like the following:
andrew@corinth:~$ apt-cache search ^libsdl | grep 1.2
libsdl1.2-dbg - Simple DirectMedia Layer debug files
libsdl1.2-dev - Simple DirectMedia Layer development files
libsdl1.2debian - Simple DirectMedia Layer
libsdl-image1.2-dbg - Image loading library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, debugging
libsdl-mixer1.2-dbg - Mixer library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, debugging
libsdl-net1.2-dbg - Network library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, debugging
libsdl-gfx1.2-4 - drawing and graphical effects extension for SDL
libsdl-gfx1.2-dev - development files for SDL_gfx
libsdl-gfx1.2-doc - documentation files for SDL_gfx
libsdl-image1.2 - Image loading library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries
libsdl-image1.2-dev - Image loading library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, development files
libsdl-mixer1.2 - Mixer library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries
libsdl-mixer1.2-dev - Mixer library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, development files
libsdl-net1.2 - Network library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries
libsdl-net1.2-dev - Network library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, development files
libsdl-sound1.2 - Sound library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries
libsdl-sound1.2-dev - Sound library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, development files
libsdl-ttf2.0-0 - TrueType Font library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, libraries
libsdl-ttf2.0-dev - TrueType Font library for Simple DirectMedia Layer 1.2, development files
andrew@corinth:~$
and then simply install all of the resulting files with something like the following:
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian libsdl-gfx1.2-5 \
libsdl-gfx1.2-dev libsdl-gfx1.2-doc libsdl-image1.2 \
libsdl-image1.2-dbg libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2 \
libsdl-mixer1.2-dbg libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2 \
libsdl-net1.2-dbg libsdl-net1.2-dev libsdl-sound1.2 \
libsdl-sound1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-0 libsdl-ttf2.0-dev
You can easily leave some out such as the .dbg files which are simply debugging extras and you will not need the -dev files unless you are compiling. Some will also be dependencies of the others as well and will be automagically installed with installation of one of these files...
You can do this:
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dbg
Or download the SDL source code to compile and install:
Download SDL
tar xvf SDL-1.2.tar.gz
cd SDL-1.2
./configure
make
sudo make install
