Bug#568445: libsdl-mixer1.2: please update, debian version is so old it's not even listed on the sdl mixer homepage anymore

[Marc Lehmann]

Package: libsdl-mixer1.2
Version: 1.2.8-4
Severity: wishlist


debian only offers the rather antique sdl-mixer 1.2.8 version, but
sdl-mixer is at 1.2.11, containing a lot of bugfixes regarding crashes and
stuttering, affecting a lot of games.

please consider updating libsdl mixer to 1.2.11. thank you!
