Hey need some advice here on this issue I’m having.
I have recently been trying to build this source code here https://www.libsdl.org/projects/doom/1
I am building the original port with sdl infused with it not the linuxdoom port so i’m having some issues

What I have tried first…

Ive installed Mingw

Ive installed SDL v1.0.1

Ive set the enviroment varibles to the path of the SDL-Config file

And made sure I had make installed also basically I have everything

But when I load up the windows command prompt I locate the source directory

so for example cd C:\Users\john\Desktop\sdl doom source code

Then I use the command ls to see my files in that directory

Then I use the sh configure to start the configuring of the source code

But I get the sdl-config found but the sdl 1.0.1 is not found but I’m going to give you the info on the config-log to see my issue and the mingw command line info to see also i’m confused because I know that I need to add the path to the include directory of the sdl/sdl.h but I cant figure it out mabe its something else please help me out on this I have been stuck on this issue for 5 hours now its kinda bullsh*t but ow well…

Here is my command line info

*** Could not run SDL test program, checking why…
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means SDL was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved SDL since it was installed. In the latter case, you
*** may want to edit the sdl-config script: /c/Program Files (x86)/SDL_MINGW32/SDL-1.0.1/bin/sdl-config
configure: error: *** SDL version 1.0.1 not found!


Here is my config-log file that it generates to give more info on what the issue is…

running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

checking for SDL - version >= 1.0.1… configure: line 1181: /c/Program: No such file or directory

and 

configure:1296:21: fatal error: SDL/SDL.h: No such file or directory

The messages are quite clear, you do not have a directory named SDL in any of the include paths, or if you do then it does not contain SDL.h.

So where is the SDL directory located?

Its in my c drive
C:\Program Files (x86)\SDL_MINGW32\SDL-1.0.1
like this what am I doing wrong any advice.....

That path name does not match. Look at what the make script is trying to find.
Just a wild guess: the configure script doesn't like the blanks in the c/Program Files (x86)/SDL_MINGW32/SDL-1.0.1/bin/sdl-config. path.
