[linrad] Re: Svgalib 1.9.20 ; Re: [linrad] Re: SVGALIB 2.9.19 under Debian

[Ramiro Aceves <ea1abz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Zaba!

I have been searching and svgalib-1.9.x is not present at the debian 
official sites. Even it is not at the "unstable" distribution. Svgalib 
1.9.x is not a "estable" release, so Debian do not have it on its 
software repositories.
So if you want svgalib 1.9.x, you have to compile it from scratch. I 
posted in this list how to do it under Debian some time ago.

Also, note that debian splits svgalib into several packages.

Try it under Debian, I am sure that it works.

I will wait for your results.
