Yes I realise that it doesn't solve the problem completely. Currently
Extras is broken for everybody, but if we promote libsdl-ttf2.0-0,
Extras is fine for people who haven't installed libsdl-ttf2.0(-0) or
have the ability uninstall it. After 2 months something could be done?
Unless this leads to even worse situation.
