Package: dosbox Version: 0.74-3-4+b1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: sk...@debian.org
Dear Maintainer, DOSBox upstream is dead for a long time. Since upstream is dead, multiple good or worse quality forks emerged over the time. One of serious ones is DOSBox-staging, which implemented testing, using recent SDL 2, modern programming language and tries hard to solve issues previously carried patch by patch from downstream forks. I (and probably few others listed in [1]) would love to see working DOSBox. Current DOSBox due to usage of SDL 1.2 is hardly usable on Wayland based environments, so my main motivation is use DOSBox on Wayland and Mobian/PureOS (Debian adapted to mobile phones). Thank you!
