#1150433 — Bug#1038506: libmlt7: Contains a plugin for an obsolete version of SDL

Package: libmlt7
Version: 7.14.0-1
Tags: trixie sid
User: pkg-sdl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: libsdl1.2

libmlt7 appears to contain plugins for both SDL 1.2 and SDL 2, and as a
result, it depends on both libsdl1.2debian and libsdl2-2.0-0.
SDL 1.2 is unmaintained upstream and we should be trying to move away
from it.

Various Debian packages depend on mlt:

- flowblade
- kdenlive
- shotcut
- synfig
- synfigstudio

but as far as I can see, none of them need SDL 1.2 specifically. Would
it be possible to disable/remove the SDL 1.2 plugin in mlt?

Thanks,
    smcv

Flowblade itself still uses SDL 1.2:

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.
