sdl12-compat is still the SDL 1.2 API, which has been deprecated for
many years, so I'm reopening this bug. It should stay open as long as
mlt has a (build-)dependency on the SDL 1.2 APIs.

I'm also marking this as blocked by flowblade being ported.  Please add
a similar blocked relationship if you find any other packages that use
mlt and SDL 1.2.

sdl12-compat has now taken over the libsdl1.2-dev package name from
the older libsdl1.2 in unstable. Please revert the build-dependency to
libsdl1.2-dev in a future upload of mlt, so that libsdl1.2-compat-dev
can be removed after Debian 13 is released without causing disruption
for this package.
