All,

Just curious as to when SDL3 will be in the repos. Build dependencies are listed here. In case saving mouse clicks makes it happen sooner.

============
Ubuntu 18.04, all available features enabled:

sudo apt-get install build-essential git make \
pkg-config cmake ninja-build gnome-desktop-testing libasound2-dev libpulse-dev \
libaudio-dev libjack-dev libsndio-dev libx11-dev libxext-dev \
libxrandr-dev libxcursor-dev libxfixes-dev libxi-dev libxss-dev libxtst-dev \
libxkbcommon-dev libdrm-dev libgbm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libgles2-mesa-dev \
libegl1-mesa-dev libdbus-1-dev libibus-1.0-dev libudev-dev

Ubuntu 22.04+ can also add libpipewire-0.3-dev libwayland-dev libdecor-0-dev liburing-dev to that command line.
======

Honestly, if it really speeds up the process, just thieve the dependency script I wrote for my project
https://sourceforge.net/p/basisdoctrina ... dencies.sh

It doesn't package the library, but could with not that much effort.

The sdl3 libraries are already in debian trixie, so they will definitely be in the upcoming mx25 release.

Here's one method to backport Trixie's sources for MX 23's multiple architectures. Soon to be in the test repo:

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show ... :sdl3-mx23

Anyway, it's much easier to backport the Trixie sources than to do it manually, though it also required a backport of libdecor. Debian splits the builds into several different packages, and if you just build and install a version from source into one big one, it's almost sure to cause trouble.

.... So maybe a good news for Vdrift into MX25 repos ?
