Sure, can do. I did most of the review already, and if we decide otherwise wrt 1.6-pre1, can always unset. > Fabian, why are you trying to package an upstream snapshot? > (not asking to package 1.5.1, I'm just wondering about why a new library > should > eventually enter Debian in a snapshot form) Upstream says: # Note that 1.6 is bleeding edge and still needs polishing before it can # replace 1.5. It is recommended you use 1.5. On the other hand, moving from SDL1.2 to SDL2 is a big change, so I understand wanting to use the new version already, both for programs using this library and to avoid doing this part of packaging twice. On the third hand, though, there's a significant risk the API/ABI might change before final 1.6. -- A tit a day keeps the vet away.
