   You can ignore it. A consequence of personal mistakes when trying to
import the pristine tar; git-buildpackage wouldn't let me use 20120220-1
after that, so I reimported it under another name.

   Feb 20th is the last one available on http://www.libsdl.org/hg.php
and I only tested that one. No objection to importing a newer snapshot
if you know of one that's in good shape.

   I'm all for having them in unstable, too, but I didn't want to push
it myself because I haven't even started working on SDL_Mixer 2.0 so I
felt like it was a bit too soon. But again, no objection to anyone else
doing it.
