[Bf-committers] Re: Linux Users: Questions about build support needs

Statically linking all those additional libraries would make it easier to 
run Blender. Perhaps we should provide both a static and a dynamic linked 
Blender? 

I just tried to run Blender 2.43 RC1 in a linux-powerpc environment (PS3) 
and it fails to find libSDL-1.2.so. 

When trying to run the blenderplayer, it also fails with the same 
libSDL-1.2.so (I though it was just using OpenAL for sound, so it is 
probably for some option (CD playback?) that I never used)...
