Source: libsdl1.2
Version: 1.2.15+dfsg1-4
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.1

Dear Maintainer,

The file src/video/fbcon/riva_mmio.h has a nonfree license that does not
explicitly allow modification. The file is from xf86-video-nv, and has
subsequently been relicensed under the MIT/Expat license:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-nv/tree/src/riva_hw.h

It should be possible to use the newer version of the file.

Thanks,
Legimet
