Ship C libraries with gem

[v0dro]

I'm trying to use gosu on a Raspberry Pi and its becoming a hell of task to install all the libraries, since a few (like libsdl2-dev) aren't available from the official Raspbian repositories.

It would be great if you could ship the dependencies with gosu and compile them from source if they are not already present on the user's machine.

Bundling all the SDL libraries with Gosu and integrating them into the extconf script would be quite brutal. I think it would be simpler to set up a shell script that executes all the steps from this guide, what do you think?

👍 Shell script auto-installer would be nice!

I hadn't noticed that wiki page. Thanks!

And yes an auto install would be great.

I'm closing this issue as bundling SDL 2 with Gosu is not feasible.
