Source: sdl12-compat Version: 0.0~git20210619.4ad7ba6-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
sdl12-compat now includes all the necessary components to build a -dev package; see https://salsa.debian.org/sdl-team/sdl12-compat/-/tree/add-dev-package for a first stab. However the current split between libsdl1.2-compat and -compat-shim, intended so that the former can be installed and used without evicting libsdl1.2debian, means that the -dev package can’t be used as-is: dpkg-shlibdeps fails to find dependency information for libSDL-1.2.so.0 when building binary packages built with libsdl1.2-compat-dev. Dropping the library package split fixes that, but would only make sense if we were to drop libsdl1.2debian entirely in favour of sdl12-compat. Regards, Stephen
