[Pkg-sdl-maintainers] Bug#354655: incorrect video mode setting then segfault

[Frederic Peters]

Package: libsdl1.2debian
Version: 1.2.9-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

After upgrading to 1.2.9-1, wesnoth won't start and segfaults like this (note
the video mode it tries to set):


Checking video mode: 1022x720x32...
32
setting mode to 1022x720x32

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I then tried with circuslinux and got a similar error:
