[5.10-64] - Removed: SDL subsystem on Linux -> REALLY ???

[fsw]

The help file says:

- Removed: SDL subsystem on Linux

REALLY ???

Load the AudioCD.pb example and press F5.

There will be tons of error messages if SDL is not installed:

...undefined reference to
SDL_Init
SDL_CDStatus
SDL_CDEject
SDL_CDQuit
SDL_CDClose
SDL_CDNumDrives
SDL_CDOpen
SDL_CDPause
SDL_CDPlayTracks
SDL_CDResume
SDL_CDStop

Running elementaryOS-64.

Most Linux users will not experience this, because on their distro SDL might be already installed.
elementaryOS does not have it - obviously

So will PB 5.11 come with a different CD library or is the help file just wrong

If you guys decide to keep SDL (and the docs are wrong) feel free to move this topic to "BUGS - Documentation".

The CD Audio lib isn't in the SDL subsystem, and requiers SDL. That's 2 different things. The SDL subsystem was only here for Sprite and has been removed, but SDL is still be needed for PB (for sound lib and cd audio lib).

Didn't know that.
Thanks for the info.
