@ -105,7 +105,7 @@ Does also install there dependencies: ppc-libogg
Currently the SDL Wii port **can't** be installed per dkp-pacman! **Don't** install the package wii-sdl.
The reason is this. Dosbox Wii currently uses functions from the SDL library that are not officially provided with header files. These functions are WII_AudioStart(), WII_AudioStop(), WII_VideoStart() and WII_VideoStop() and used in src/platform/wii/wiihardware.cpp. The wii-sdl package doesn't provide export these functions. This results in undefined references at linking. To prevent this the library from github should be used. The current version from the master branch https://github.com/dborth/sdl-wii works fine. It also exports the functions WII_AudioStart(), WII_AudioStop(), WII_VideoStart() and WII_VideoStop() (A header file is not provided for these functions. This is no problem because src/platform/wii/wiihardware.cpp make its own prototyp declarations for these functions.)
