$)CHi all,

I am trying to compile pygame.
I have errors when I ran "python config.py" for pygame, which is

Hunting dependencies...
sh: line 1: smpeg-config: command not found
WARNING: "smpeg-config" failed!
SDL     : found 1.2.5
FONT    : not found
IMAGE   : found
MIXER   : found
SMPEG   : not found
NUMERIC : found 24.0b2

The trouble is "FONT".  I already installed SDL_ttf-2.0.7, but
pygame installation still complains about "FONT".
Would some one lead me on this?

If this listing is not appropriate for this question, would someone direct
me to some other listings?

Thanks.
Nam.

It looks like you need to reconfigure pygame.  I believe you must run 
"python config.py" to do this.  Do it before running "python setup.py 
build" again.  Also, unless you want to play mpeg movies, you don't need 
smpeg, so I wouldn't worry about that.  SDL_ttf is the FONT dependency 
referred to.  Good luck, and let us know if you have any more issues.

Cheers!
Andrew
