Subject: Question regarding Trixie and SFML
To: 


Hello,
I am wondering if in Debian Trixie, there would be separate packages for
the SFML library 2.0 series and 3.0 series. The 3.0 series is not
available yet in Debian 12, however, when it does come available, I would
want the 2.0 series to still be available due to the lack of backwards
compatibility SFML provides. Thanks for your help.
