Bug#672948: sdlbasic should build-depend on libogg-dev and libvorbis-dev (and possibly others)

Package: sdlbasic
Version: 0.0.20070714-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

We're planning to remove some dependencies that were introduced for
libsdl*-dev packages years ago that are actually not required, and we
found that some packages fail to build when we remove them, because
they rely on libsdl-*-dev packages pulling them.

Please re-check the build-depends on your package.  In particular,
please check if your package really depends on the same packages as
[1][2][3] do (e.g.: libdirectfb-dev, libcaca-dev, libogg-dev,
libtiff4-dev, ...); otherwise your package will FTBFS in the near
future.

[1] http://packages.debian.org/sid/libsdl-image1.2-dev
[2] http://packages.debian.org/sid/libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
[3] http://packages.debian.org/sid/libsdl1.2-dev

For example, your package uses Ogg and Vorbis:
...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvorbisfile
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvorbis
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -logg
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status


And so it should build-depend on libogg-dev libvorbis-dev.

Regards.

(If you have any question, please keep the
CC:pkg-sdl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org in the loop)
