I am hopeful at migrating some of the 32-bit Linux games I maintain to rl9
to take advantage of security and bug fixes. As they require SDL 1.2, they
could possibly run with the sdl12-compat library. I have not tested this
as of yet. In fact, I have not tested the port other than building, but I
am sure it works. :D I do not want to continue down this path if it is
totally wrong.
However, I did create a port for linux-rl9-sdl20, which would be needed
first. This required changes to Uses/linux.mk due to how packages are
stored on the Rocky Linux site. The filename starts with "SDL2-2.26.0"
while the directory it inhabits uses a lowercase "s". The patch worked for
me under poudriere to fetch the base rl9 files and the new port by always
making the subdirectory lowercase.
Both patches are here: https://people.freebsd.org/~scf/linux-rl9/
SDL and company work in progress here :)
Will be landed soon in preparation of switch default to rl9 instead of c7
That is good news. Is there a central repo or issue I may follow to see
what is coming?
