Title: Try to compile SFML Library (file not found)
Post by: Bedda on February 03, 2021, 04:37:09 pm

Hello
I try to compile the SFML Library for my Ubuntu 20.04 System.
first i try it with the QTCreator but a error appeared.
then i try my luck under the terminal with the same result.
i checked the needed libraries but the are all installed.
and this Error was displayed

what command did you use in the terminal exacly?
are you trying to build from cmake? aren't you trying to use the QTCreator files (you probably have a option for that in cmake)

With some of the latest changes on the master branch you also need the dependency libxcursor-dev.
