Hi pkg-sdl maintainers,
as you have already noticed, I uploaded the libsdl2-* stack to wheezy backports
Processing of libsdl2-net_2.0.0+dfsg1-2~bpo70+1_amd64.changes Debian FTP Masters
Processing of libsdl2-ttf_2.0.12+dfsg1-2~bpo70+1_amd64.changes Debian FTP Masters
Processing of libsdl2-mixer_2.0.0+dfsg1-5~bpo70+1_amd64.changes Debian FTP Masters
Processing of libsdl2-image_2.0.0+dfsg-3~bpo70+1_amd64.changes Debian FTP Masters
libsdl2-image_2.0.0+dfsg-3~bpo70+1_amd64.changes is NEW Debian FTP Masters
libsdl2-mixer_2.0.0+dfsg1-5~bpo70+1_amd64.changes is NEW Debian FTP Masters
libsdl2-net_2.0.0+dfsg1-2~bpo70+1_amd64.changes is NEW Debian FTP Masters
libsdl2-ttf_2.0.12+dfsg1-2~bpo70+1_amd64.changes is NEW Debian FTP Masters
this will be probably needed by hedgewars, a game that is switching to sdl2, and that needs
backporting because otherwise people will have troubles in online gaming (I mean, each versions
can play only with users running the same version, and with new releases older rooms becomes empty soon).
So, I uploaded the stuff, even if I won't need it probably for some months (and maybe wheezy will be
deprecated before), but I think it is a good move to have some new libraries to backports,
because upstream is deprecating sdl1, and they are really stable libraries with not manu security issues
so far :)
thanks,
Gianfranco
