Note that problems with SDL 1.2.14 have been reported, thus we advise you to use SDL
1.2.13 for now.
(Note also that although differring boost requirements are displayed, boost libs from different releases are in general incompatible and you should not mix and match.)
These libraries are optional dependencies that enable additional features:
libdbus-1 (used for desktop notifications)
libpng (save images as pngs, otherwise only bmp is possible)
As a temporary compatibility measure, it is possible to build the game without requiring boost filesystem or boost locale, using libintl for translations instead. The cost is that wesnoth won't support UTF-8 in filepaths on all platforms.
For this, target filesystem.cpp and gettext.cpp instead of filesystem_boost.cpp and gettext_boost.cpp. For scons/cmake the "boost filesystem" option toggles these.
Similarly it is possible, although not recommended, to compile the game with any libsdl-mixer version >= 1.2.0, at the cost of reduced UTF-8 support.
There are currently two ways to build wesnoth:
* scons >= 0.98.3
