SDL problems

["R.A.Fletcher" <nospam [at] sheffield.ac.uk>]

Last week I got SDL going, sort of, this weekend I upgraded to 
SuSE 6.3 (Instead of 6.1) and installed the SDL off the CD's. I had 
installed from scratch, saving my home directory on the dos 
partition. The version of SDL was 0.9, so today I downloaded the 
newly released stable 1.0.4 as an rpm. I installed it, and it worked 
as kpackage knows its there. I ran the program "fire" compiled last 
week, which needs SDL, and it worked. Yet when I try to 
"./configure" it  tells me SDL 1.0.1 is not found, and I am doing it 
as root. Do I assume that the configure script is stupid and cannot 
see that there is a newer version on my system, and the problem 
is there? Or, is there some configuration I do not know about which 
needs to be done? 

I have downloaded the source to many SDL reliant programs and 
have the same problem with each.

Thanks in advance.
