Package: libgengameng-dev
Version: 4.1-7
Severity: grave

   /usr/lib/libgengameng.la references the following libraries:

     /usr/lib/libSDL.la
     /usr/lib/libasound.la
     /usr/lib/libartsc.la
     /usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.la
     -ldl
     /usr/lib/libgthread-2.0.la
     /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la
     /usr/lib/libesd.la
     /usr/lib/libaudiofile.la
     -laudio
     -lXt
     -lXext
     -lvga
     /usr/lib/libaa.la
     -lncurses
     -lslang
     -lX11
     -lpthread

   However the libgengameng-dev package does not depend on these
libraries' development packages except libsdl1.2-dev and libsdl-image1.2-dev. 

   Moreover, it creates useless dependencies because it links binaries
with libaa, svgalib etc. but there are versions of libSDL that do not
require these libraries.

   I suggest simply dropping the /usr/lib/libgengameng.la file. Ultimately
the SDL team would like to get rid of /usr/lib/libSDL.la but reverse
dependencies need to be removed first.
