Installing SDL2 on Linux
linux, sdl-2
Solution
It depends which Ubuntu version you are running but yes, there is a libsdl2 package for Ubuntu: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=sdl2
The package you want is called `libsdl2-dev`.
Also, about the `#include <SDL/SDL.h>` line, it seems the recommended way doing it is by adjusting your compiler flags to add SDL's include pah and use `#include "SDL.h"`. See https://forums.libsdl.org/viewtopic.php?t=5997 for more details on that.
Problem
I try to run simple test.cpp from Twinklebar SDL tutorial, I get this error: ``` test.cpp:2:10: fatal error: 'SDL2/SDL.h' file not found ``` So I look up the sdl development package in Ubuntu/Mint: ``` aptitude search sdl | grep 2 ``` All I can find is this: ``` libsdl1.2-dev ``` Does this mean my only option is to install from sources?
