We don't link to a package. We depend on it. And we don't depend on the dummy one to let the user choose which of the libsdl1.2debian-* he wants to use according to the sound system he use. So I agree with Heimar that it is correct. Furthermore, we don't force on what package we depends. It's all comes from the .shlibs file of libsdl1.2-debian. Which, IMHO, correctly has libsdl1.2debian in it. The only possible alternative I see is to have the whole list of libsdl1.2debian-* in the shlibs file. but i doesn't bring anything more and complicate maintenance. So I think it's not a bug and an mplayer Uploader should close it. IF some people can demonstrate it's a bug, then it's a libsdl bug and not a mplayer bug.
