How can I build a proram so that it will run on almost every Linux?
I thought I should use `allegro-config --libs --static` and --static for the linker, but I dont work, in example:

g++ alien_main.o alien_seed1.o [...] test_a.o -lm `allegro-config --libs --static` -o alien.linux.i386.static.elf --static

What can I do about it? What if I would need to use allegroGL and GL, GLUT libraries?

Distribute source.

I've never actually seen this produce a problem when the program is run. I think you need to disable modules in Allegro to get rid of this.

You need to bring in an extra library for the linker. I think you can do ldd /usr/lib/libXcursor.a and cross-reference with the output of allegro-config --libs to see which one you need to link in.

It looks like it wants the XRender lib.

I think the last --static on the command line should be -static. That causes even dynamic libraries to be static-linked. However, shared libraries that are themselves dynamic linked with other libs may need to have those extra libs explicitly specified.

Well I can not give the source,
- closed-source commercial application
- not everyone have time to recompiles, its not lny by programmers - for programmers program

I will play with that link options... how to disable modules in Allegro compilation?

No, but if you were to release source then others could contribute compiled versions for different distributions. Distributions might even ship the compiled version. Of course, they probably won't if it's a commercial project.
By the way, `open source' in no way contradicts `commercial'

Check the configure options (./configure --help). I think it's something like --disable-modules.
