Hello,
Despite this:
lucretia:~$ dpkg -I /var/cache/apt/archives/libsdl1.2_1.2.2-3_i386.deb |
grep Depend
Depends: libsdl1.2-all (=3D 1.2.2-3) | libsdl1.2-oss (=3D 1.2.2-3) |

grep Depend
Depends: libc6 (>=3D 2.2.3-7), xlibs (>> 4.1.0)

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.

In reality, no extra packages are needed at all. Installing the downloaded
packages manually with dpkg -i works just fine.
