Uh, why? The libsdl1.2debian package is exactly the right one, since any of the above are ok. Unless you want every package to hard-code that any of these is fine, which I think is really silly because each time a new libsdl1.2debian-* package gets added the dependencies of all packages using libsdl need to be updated... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
