Sorry for the delay. Here's that test: https://salsa.debian.org/sdl-team/libsdl2/merge_requests/6 On Sun, 19 Jan 2020 at 23:11:18 +0100, Felix Geyer wrote: > On 10.12.19 23:18, Hugh McMaster wrote: > > At this point, I don’t see anything preventing us from adding the extra > > include path > > I've pushed this change to the git repo: > https://salsa.debian.org/sdl-team/libsdl2/commit/6f58f10282cf9b9af567ec520f0d2c4dc368dbea I have confirmed that the test in !6 passes with the SDL currently in unstable (before !5), fails after !5 but without 6f58f102, and passes again with that commit added. > On 10.12.19 23:18, Hugh McMaster wrote: > > Neverball could also be patched to call pkg-config with SDL2_ttf, which, > > IIRC, has both include paths already (since SDL2_ttf requires SDL2). It would be great if SDL-dependent packages would phase out the pattern of using sdl2-config for SDL and a hard-coded -l for the smaller libraries like SDL2_ttf, and start using pkg-config. However, that would require some mass-bug-filing and patches. 6f58f102 means we can avoid the incompatible change, avoiding that MBF being a blocker for solving #909740. smcv
