Public bug reported:
When trying to create a window with unsupported OpenGL attributes,
instead of failing gracefully (and then being able to try with a new set
of attributes), an X error occurs instead, terminating the program. The
error looks like this:
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 4 (X_DestroyWindow)
Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 154
Current serial number in output stream: 156
This was a known bug in SDL2 that has been fixed in this commit:
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/2088cd828335
Only artful ships a package that is impacted by the bug, other ubuntu
versions ship either an SDL2 version that is older, or a version that
contains the fix. Would it be possible to backport the fix to the artful
package?
