Created attachment 243505 [details] Options to select SDL version manually games/openttd/Makefile checks for installed SDL2 and use it if found, SDL 1.2 is used otherwise. When built in the clean environment (e.g. using ports-mgmt/synth), SDL2 is never found, and SDL 1.2 is used. So one can't build OpenTTD with SDL2 in the package-building system. It is possible to use the port's options to force using sdl or sdl2, or leave default autodetection intact.

Right, SDL 1.2 is preferred and that's what pulled when building packages. > It is possible to use the port's options to force using sdl or sdl2 Maybe, albeit I don't see what's the problem. If you have SDL2 installed, it will be used, otherwise the port will pull good old SDL 1.2. > or leave default autodetection intact. Sorry, I don't undestand. Autodetection is what the port does now and it works as intended.
(In reply to Alexey Dokuchaev from comment #2) > Maybe, albeit I don't see what's the problem. If you have SDL2 installed, it will be used, otherwise the port will pull good old SDL 1.2. I HAVE SDL2 installed. But I build packages for 4 machines with ports-mgmt/synth. Synth makes a clean chroot(8) for building, and it doesn't install SDL2 into that chroot unless it is stated as a dependency, and OpenTTD's Makefile pulls SDL 1.2. And SDL 1.2 is unusable for pure wayland environment without Xwayland layer. > Sorry, I don't undestand. Autodetection is what the port does now and it works as intended. So does it with my patch with the default options. But now I can: - tell the port to use good old SDL 1.2 even if I have SDL2 installed (e.g. for compatibility reasons); - tell the port to pull SDL2 (e.g. for wayland support) even in synth or poudrier clean building environment.
(In reply to Alexey Dokuchaev from comment #2) > Right, SDL 1.2 is preferred and that's what pulled when building packages. Looks contrary to upstream intention. OpenTTD added SDL2 in 1.10.0 and made it default (for plain/vendor build and bundled recipes for Windows, Debian, openSUSE). OpenTTD switched to CMake in 1.11.0 but kept SDL2 as default. According to bug 245253 the port kept SDL12 only per maintainer's discretion thus insincere to say in passive voice. CMakeLists.txt: find_package(SDL2) if(NOT SDL2_FOUND) find_package(SDL) endif() config.lib: sdl2_config="" if [ -x "`which sdl2-config`" ]; then detect_pkg_config "$with_sdl" "sdl2" "sdl2_config" "2.0" fi if [ -z "$sdl2_config" ]; then detect_pkg_config "$with_sdl" "sdl" "sdl_config" "1.2" fi > Autodetection is what the port does now and it works as intended. Autodetection in ports (unlike vendor build) is discouraged (see ports 7cffd3c8f908 or ports 4da13b8f8e61) and gets in the way of reproducible builds (see D24586). (In reply to Andrey Zakharchenko from comment #3) > And SDL 1.2 is unusable for pure wayland environment without Xwayland layer. devel/sdl12-compat can be used as a workaround. However, sdl12-compat may be more buggy than native sdl2 support and currently requires sdl12 during build to expose API and avoid package conflict due to missing provides/requires in the ports framework.
