Eu tenho o DOSBox SVN-Duam na sua homepage. Talvez eu tenha resolvido os problemas de dependência,

Mas quando eu executo,
$ ./dosbox
DOSBox version SVN-Daum
Copyright 2002-2011 DOSBox Team, published under GNU GPL.
GUI: Press Ctrl-F10 to capture/release mouse, Alt-F10 for configuration. CONFIG:Loading primary settings from config file dosbox.conf ./dosbox: symbol lookup error: ./dosbox: undefined symbol: SDL_GetDesktopMode
O que há de errado com isso? Eu não tentei executá-lo em outras distribuições Linux. Mas é perfeito no Windows.
Você pode encontrar libSDL-1.2.so.0 no diretório LIBS. O arquivo inclui uma função chamada SDL_GetDesktopMode.
Se você for compilar o SDL você mesmo, você precisa do patch openglhq do Moe. Obtenha o arquivo openglhq-dosbox-for-sdl-202121117_msvc_gcc.patch em seu site.
