I've talked with Davide (SFML maintainer) some time ago on Matrix and the main thing holding him back was the fact that SFML2 and SFML3 are not API-compatible, and some of the software depending on SFML2 does not have an update to SFML3 available upstream.
This can be solved by introducing a separate SFML2 package before bumping current SFML to v3, but there's one extra complicating factor here: contrary to SDL, which uses separate SONAMEs for the major releases (i.e. SDL2.so, SDL3.so, etc.), SFML does not. So SFML2 would need some patching in order to make it parallel-installable with SFML3.
