Package: src:sdl12-compat
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
Now that SDL3 stable is out (and available in sid, thank you ;-)
I would like to be able to test games using a long chain of libraries:
sdl12-compat -> sdl2-compat -> SDL3
If I'm not mistaken, it should be as simple as adjusting the "Depends"
field for libsdl1.2debian to "libsdl2-2.0-0 | libsdl2-compat-shim" and
the one for libsdl1.2-dev to "libsdl2-dev | libsdl2-compat-dev"
Thanks!
Sébastien

You already can.
Closing this as "not a bug" on that basis.
Also, the version of sdl2-compat in experimental takes over the package
names previously used by src:libsdl2, allowing it to replace src:libsdl2
completely (the same way sdl12-compat replaced src:libsdl1.2). Now that
we have the SDL 3.4.2 bugfix release available upstream and on its way
into unstable, my intention is to do some more testing (help with this
is very welcome) and then make the switch to sdl2-compat as the only
implementation of the SDL 2 API in Debian.
