Bug#669571: Dependency changes causing other packages to fail to build

Package: libsdl-image1.2-dev
Version: 1.2.12-1
Severity: serious

Changes made to the dependencies of this package seem to have had some
downstream effects:

A lot of packages assume libsdl-image1.2-dev/libsdl-image1.2 depend on
libpng, libjpeg and/or zlib indirectly and now fail to build:

Some examples:

bomberclone : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669542
supertux    : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669496
logstalgia  : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=669453

The subject of some of these bugs is wrong, but the build log shows a
failure testing for the existence of the above libraries.

I could change the dependencies of my packages (logstalgia, gource),
but it might be optimal if you could add these dependencies back.

Cheers
