Possibly because of this SDL change:

libsdl1.2 (1.2.9-0.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * 002_static_libs.diff:
    + New patch that adds libaaâ<80><99>s required static libraries to sdl-configâ<80><99>s
      --static-libs output (Closes: #273018, #246477).

Speaking of SDL; it seems like the regular maintainer is MIA and the current
co-maintainer is not a DD. Maybe we can move it to the Debian Games Group as
well?
