Allegro 5 has been moved from the updates-testing repositories to the updates repositories for Fedora 13 and Fedora 14 Installation Instructions
The -devel packages are required to compile programs that use Allegro 5. The -debuginfo package should contain the debug symbols for more useful output in case of a crash. The other packages are the runtimes for the core library and the addons (required to run Allegro 5 programs). If you have any trouble let me know or file a bug report. You're welcome. References

Nice! Congratulations. I'm thinking to start using Fedora to compile my game (and learn). But what about the recent versions of Allegro that are going to be released?, I saw that it took you time and effort to get Allegro there. It's too difficult to update releases of Allegro?. I don't know how the system works.

I don't know how the system works. It was actually quite simple. It took so long mostly because I was new to it and wanted to do things right (i.e., didn't want to do it wrong and get in trouble for breaking something). I'll be working on updating the Allegro 4 packages next for Allegro 4.4. I'm not sure just how serious the bugs in 5.0.0 are, but I don't think they're so serious that they cripple Allegro 5 for most people, so I'm not going to rush to update the packages. I will update them when I find the time though. Edit: I've just received notice that allegro5 was pushed to stable for Fedora 15 (Alpha)! -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

Technically it is copyrighted, but as far as I'm concerned it's fine to copy elsewhere. Allegro.cc probably technically owns it though for legal reasons, but I doubt ML will have a problem with you copying it to the wiki. Also, updated the OP: I received notice that it has been pushed to stable for Fedora 15 too (though it might take a day or two for it to be seen). -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?
