Package: libsdl1.2debian Version: 1.2.15-2 Severity: important SDL 1.2.15 contains a rather nasty bug with window resizing reported here:
http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1430 If the user attempts to re-size the SDL application window at the corner, that event and all subsequent re-size events are ignored, resulting in the window area not matching the area drawn to by the application. I recently implemented window resizing in my SDL application Gource only to discover this feature no longer works due to this bug, so I am keen to see this fixed before I do another release. As documented on the above report the issue was introduced by this commit: http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/ad4ed9f0336f This change was intended to fix an earlier less serious / un-reproduced re-size bug ( http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049 ) though its effect has been to completely break it. I wonder if perhaps we could get a patch added to the debian package reverting this commit as it may take a long time to filter through in a release from upstream. Cheers Andrew Caudwell
