Probably just a typo with your pipe, but I would write the shell code
as test x$(which sdl-config 2>&1 | grep -v ^no) != x. I like the $
( ) syntax rather than the back ticks ` ` as it is a little easier to
read, IMO. To be honest, you folks are the developers, I'm just a
sysadmin with a small bit of shell scripting ability, I'd go with
whatever the two of you choose for maintainability.
