Package: libsdl1.2-dev
Version: 1.2.15-5
Severity: normal

It seems the manpage speaks about a completely different program which is not
available on debian. Here are some examples:

man /usr/share/man/man1/sdl-config.1.gz:
 * sdl-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs | --library-libs | --plugin-libs ] [ --cflags ]

/usr/bin/sdl-config
 * sdl-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--cflags] [--libs] [--static-libs]

man /usr/share/man/man1/sdl-config.1.gz:
 * gcc -o libSDL_nifty-1.2.so.0.0.1 $(sdl --library-libs) read.o write.o munge.o

sdl --library-libs:
 * command not found: sdl

sdl-config --library-libs:
 * Usage: sdl-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--cflags] [--libs] [--static-libs]

man /usr/share/man/man1/sdl-config.1.gz:
 * sdl --plugin-libs

sdl --plugin-libs:
 * command not found: sdl

sdl-config --plugin-libs:
 * Usage: sdl-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--cflags] [--libs] [--static-libs]
