pygame installation: sdl-config command not found

问题:

I used

./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install

to install sdl2, after which I tried to install pygame by

cd ../pygame-1.9.1release/
python setup.py install

but I am getting an error:

linuxnx:~/python/library/pygame-1.9.1release> python setup.py install

Try this in the terminal , It should installs the sdl 1.2 # make a temporary directory where we can download and build stuff

mkdir tmp
cd tmp

# download and install SDL
wget http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-1.2.14.tar.gz
tar -xzvf SDL-1.2.14.tar.gz
cd SDL-1.2.14
./configure 
sudo make all

PyGame-1.9.1 was created in 2009 so it still use old SDL 1.2 not new SDL2.

PySDL2 use SDL2
