Description: SDL 1.2 binary compatibility library - transitional package
sdl12-compat provides a binary compatible API for programs built
against SDL 1.2, but using SDL 2.0.
.
If you are writing new code, please target SDL 2.0 directly instead
of using this layer.
.
This transitional package provides symbolic links to the library in a private
location, matching the way it was used before it was Debian's default
implementation of the SDL 1.2 ABI.
