Installing sdl2_ttf

Installing sdl2_ttf from the conda-forge channel can be achieved by adding conda-forge to your channels with:

conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority strict

Once the conda-forge channel has been enabled, sdl2_ttf can be installed with conda:

conda install sdl2_ttf

or with mamba:

mamba install sdl2_ttf

It is possible to list all of the versions of sdl2_ttf available on your platform with conda:

conda search sdl2_ttf --channel conda-forge

or with mamba:

mamba search sdl2_ttf --channel conda-forge

Alternatively, mamba repoquery may provide more information:

# Search all versions available on your platform:
mamba repoquery search sdl2_ttf --channel conda-forge

# List packages depending on `sdl2_ttf`:
mamba repoquery whoneeds sdl2_ttf --channel conda-forge

# List dependencies of `sdl2_ttf`:
mamba repoquery depends sdl2_ttf --channel conda-forge

About conda-forge

conda-forge is a community-led conda channel of installable packages. In order to provide high-quality builds, the process has been automated into the conda-forge GitHub organization. The conda-forge organization contains one repository for each of the installable packages. Such a repository is known as a feedstock.

A feedstock is made up of a conda recipe (the instructions on what and how to build the package) and the necessary configurations for automatic building using freely available continuous integration services. Thanks to the awesome service provided by Azure, GitHub, CircleCI, AppVeyor, Drone, and TravisCI it is possible to build and upload installable packages to the conda-forge anaconda.org channel for Linux, Windows and OSX respectively.

To manage the continuous integration and simplify feedstock maintenance conda-smithy has been developed. Using the conda-forge.yml within this repository, it is possible to re-render all of this feedstock's supporting files (e.g. the CI configuration files) with conda smithy rerender.

For more information please check the conda-forge documentation.

Terminology

feedstock - the conda recipe (raw material), supporting scripts and CI configuration.

conda-smithy - the tool which helps orchestrate the feedstock. Its primary use is in the construction of the CI .yml files and simplify the management of many feedstocks.

conda-forge - the place where the feedstock and smithy live and work to produce the finished article (built conda distributions)

Updating sdl2_ttf-feedstock

If you would like to improve the sdl2_ttf recipe or build a new package version, please fork this repository and submit a PR. Upon submission, your changes will be run on the appropriate platforms to give the reviewer an opportunity to confirm that the changes result in a successful build. Once merged, the recipe will be re-built and uploaded automatically to the conda-forge channel, whereupon the built conda packages will be available for everybody to install and use from the conda-forge channel. Note that all branches in the conda-forge/sdl2_ttf-feedstock are immediately built and any created packages are uploaded, so PRs should be based on branches in forks and branches in the main repository should only be used to build distinct package versions.

In order to produce a uniquely identifiable distribution:

• If the version of a package is not being increased, please add or increase the build/number.
• If the version of a package is being increased, please remember to return the build/number back to 0.

Already helping to maintain sdl2_image & sdl2_mixer

macOS builds should have run_exports max_pin="x.x.x"

Solution to issue cannot be found in the documentation.

Issue

I do not know if this is a problem upstream or it is a deliberate decision, but some some reason it seems that macOS CMake config files for sdl2_ttf ask downstream build systems to link the specific patch version of the library, creating a runtime dependency not on any sdl2_ttf version newer then the version used, but exactly on the patch version of sdl2_ttf used to build the package.

To understand why is happening, see the content of lib\cmake\SDL2_ttf\SDL2-shared-targets-release.cmake file from osx-64/sdl2_ttf-2.22.0-hcf92afd_0.conda, its content is:

#----------------------------------------------------------------
# Generated CMake target import file for configuration "Release".
#----------------------------------------------------------------

# Commands may need to know the format version.
set(CMAKE_IMPORT_FILE_VERSION 1)

# Import target "SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf" for configuration "Release"
set_property(TARGET SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf APPEND PROPERTY IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS RELEASE)
set_target_properties(SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf PROPERTIES
  IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES_RELEASE "SDL2::SDL2"
  IMPORTED_LOCATION_RELEASE "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/lib/libSDL2_ttf-2.0.2201.0.0.dylib"
  IMPORTED_SONAME_RELEASE "@rpath/libSDL2_ttf-2.0.2201.0.0.dylib"
  )

list(APPEND _cmake_import_check_targets SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf )
list(APPEND _cmake_import_check_files_for_SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/lib/libSDL2_ttf-2.0.2201.0.0.dylib" )

# Commands beyond this point should not need to know the version.
set(CMAKE_IMPORT_FILE_VERSION)

Note how the IMPORTED_SONAME_RELEASE refers to the exact name of the library, not to the libSDL2_ttf-2.0.dylib or libSDL2_ttf.dylib symlink. On the other hand, the same lib\cmake\SDL2_ttf\SDL2-shared-targets-release.cmake file in the linux-64/sdl2_ttf-2.22.0-ha14f88b_0.conda linux package is :

#----------------------------------------------------------------
# Generated CMake target import file for configuration "Release".
#----------------------------------------------------------------

# Commands may need to know the format version.
set(CMAKE_IMPORT_FILE_VERSION 1)

# Import target "SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf" for configuration "Release"
set_property(TARGET SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf APPEND PROPERTY IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS RELEASE)
set_target_properties(SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf PROPERTIES
  IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES_RELEASE "SDL2::SDL2"
  IMPORTED_LOCATION_RELEASE "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/lib/libSDL2_ttf-2.0.so.0.2200.0"
  IMPORTED_SONAME_RELEASE "libSDL2_ttf-2.0.so.0"
  )

list(APPEND _cmake_import_check_targets SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf )
list(APPEND _cmake_import_check_files_for_SDL2_ttf::SDL2_ttf "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/lib/libSDL2_ttf-2.0.so.0.2200.0" )

# Commands beyond this point should not need to know the version.
set(CMAKE_IMPORT_FILE_VERSION)

In this case, the IMPORTED_SONAME_RELEASE referece to the generic x.x name of the library, not to the x.x.x name of the library.
