Package: libgengameng-dev
Version: 4.1-7
Severity: grave
/usr/lib/libgengameng.la references the following libraries:
/usr/lib/libSDL.la
/usr/lib/libasound.la
/usr/lib/libartsc.la
/usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.la
-ldl
/usr/lib/libgthread-2.0.la
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la
/usr/lib/libesd.la
/usr/lib/libaudiofile.la
-laudio
-lXt
-lXext
-lvga
/usr/lib/libaa.la
-lncurses
-lslang
-lX11
-lpthread
However the libgengameng-dev package does not depend on these
libraries' development packages except libsdl1.2-dev and libsdl-image1.2-dev.
Moreover, it creates useless dependencies because it links binaries
with libaa, svgalib etc. but there are versions of libSDL that do not
require these libraries.
I suggest simply dropping the /usr/lib/libgengameng.la file. Ultimately
the SDL team would like to get rid of /usr/lib/libSDL.la but reverse
dependencies need to be removed first.

gengameng has been removed from the archive, therefore I am closing all of
