I have pygame running along with kobo software 2.8.1.
Additional to Kevin's zip package I had to download and replace libs from debian wheezy (armhf):
- libsdl-mixer1.2 (
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/ar...er1.2/download)
- libts-0.0 (
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/ar...0.0-0/download)
After that "import pygame" works.
Don't think if it matters but I also upgrade python to 2.7.3 with python2.7-minimal from here:
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/ar...nimal/download.
But there is one problem: libpng and libjpeg from Kevin's package are not compatible with the ones from kobo's software (v2.8.1). If I use Kevin's versions loading images with pygame works but kobo software won't load. So I'm using kobo's versions and I had to convert all images which I am loading with pygame to BMP format.
I'm not entirely happy with it - it's a mess... but at least I was able to run my boot menu written in python without rewriting it or recompiling libs.
