SDL_sound has added SDL2 support[1] and then removed support for 1.2[2] in the development (default) branch while the stable-1.0 branch supports both 1.2 and 2.0[3]. They also haven't made any releases in 13 years. The latest development version of one of my packages, ags, is switching to SDL2 (from Allegro) and requires a corresponding SDL2-based SDL_sound.

However, many older games still use SDL 1.2 and cannot change to SDL 2.0. In order to help move SDL 1.2 games into the modern world, let's replace SDL 1.2 with sdl12-compat, which uses SDL 2.0. == Benefit to Fedora == Switching SDL 1.2 powered games to use sdl12-compat offers significant advantages: * Automatic support for Wayland with SDL 2.0.16+ * Native support for PipeWire for audio * Massively improved support for inputs (including gamepads) Ultimately, SDL 2.0 is actively maintained and developed. We want applications that use SDL to use an actively maintained codebase. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** Package [https://github.com/libsdl-org/sdl12-compat libsdl12-compat] ([https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1960960 RH#1960960]) ** Adjust {{package|SDL}} to not ship the main library package and use the one from libsdl12-compat ** Once [https://github.com/libsdl-org/sdl12-compat/issues/34 replacement development headers are available], retire {{package|SDL}} completely. * Other developers: N/A * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10118 #10118] * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: N/A == Upgrade/compatibility impact == The SDL package would be transparently upgraded to libsdl12-compat package and games using it should just transparently start using SDL 2.0. == How To Test == 1. Swap SDL for sdl12-compat: dnf swap SDL sdl12-compat 2. Run something that uses SDL 1.2 like {{package|quake3}} and see that it works. == User Experience == There shouldn't be a noticeable user impact, other than possibly a smoother experience because applications are using SDL 2.0. == Dependencies == == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: Restore the SDL package in {{package|SDL}}. If {{package|SDL}} has been fully retired, then unretire it. * Contingency deadline: Final Freeze * Blocks release? N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Release Notes == Games that use SDL 1.2 will now transparently use SDL 2.0 through the sdl12-compat package. This makes it so applications that historically used SDL 1.2 now use SDL 2.0. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis ___ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
