Bug#816125: libsdl1.2debian: Remove DirectFB dependency

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

correct link is here
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-sdl/packages/libsdl1.2.git/commit/?id=5442bf696a96f7e0453d0a0cf75eb3a042d5f2b5

the -2 wasn't committed on git, so I imported the dsc and moved to a -3 entry.

sorry for the noise,

G.
