Bug#1038875: pyracerz: Depends on obsolete libsdl-ttf2.0-0, probably unnecessarily

Package: pyracerz
Version: 0.2+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
User: pkg-sdl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: libsdl1.2
Control: block 1038070 by -1

pyracerz uses python3-pygame, which is a Python library based on SDL 2.
However, pyracers also Depends on libsdl-ttf2.0-0, which (perhaps
confusingly) is an extension for SDL 1.2.

python3-pygame already Depends on libsdl2-ttf-2.0-0, which is the SDL 2
replacement for libsdl-ttf2.0-0. This means it is probably unnecessary
for pyracerz to depend on libsdl-ttf2.0-0.

Please assess whether this dependency can be removed.

Thanks,
