HaikuDepot: SDL2 cannot work with CMake

Reported by: Carlo_Bramini Owned by: nobody

Description (last modified by Carlo_Bramini)

I updated my packages with HaikuDepot application. The process updated SDL2 from 2.0.20 to 2.26.4 and I discovered that the development package doesn't work anymore with CMake.

Running a simple script prints this message on the console:

CMake Error at /boot/system/lib/cmake/SDL2/SDL2mainTargets.cmake:80 (message):
  The imported target "SDL2::SDL2main" references the file

     "/boot/system/lib/libSDL2main.a"

  but this file does not exist.  Possible reasons include:

  * The file was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.

  * An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.

  * The installation package was faulty and contained

     "/boot/system/lib/cmake/SDL2/SDL2mainTargets.cmake"

  but not all the files it references.

Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /boot/system/lib/cmake/SDL2/SDL2Config.cmake:49 (include)
  CMakeLists.txt:18 (find_package)

Actually, CMake is right because I have found that static library installed here:

/boot/system/develop/lib/libSDL2main.a

Manually fixing the issue by making a link to /boot/system/lib/libSDL2main.a didn't work because it prints that the filesystem is read-only, but I think that there is something else to do.

Issues with 3rd party ports should be reported at the HaikuPorts bugtracker.

Hey Carlo! As humdinger said, it would be best to file this over HaikuPorts, but... may I ask you please to also tell us the exact revision of the SDL2 _devel package you installed?

Notice that the version-revision for the newest one is "2.26.4-2". That last "-2" is also important (as it denotes changes on the recipe/packaging of that particular SDL2 version).

Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for the reply, I opened a new ticket to HaikuPorts as you suggested, I didn't know about that, sorry for the trouble.

For information, the installed revision of the library is "2.26.4-2" and I discovered the issue with my port of Tomb1Main engine for Haiku:
