#52 SDL2

[Vortex Acherontic]

Hey there while attempting to build a rpm package for openSUSE I noticed that you guys seem to build this project against SDL 1.2 which is rather old and also have some annoyances which are solved in SDL 2.

So my request would be to update the project to work with SDL2 or at least make the waf script aware of sdl2 if sdl1.2 is not found.

If I add sld2 to the build script I get these message:

python waf configure
[ 16s] Setting top to : /home/abuild/rpmbuild/SOURCES/quake2xp-svn.1286
[ 16s] Setting out to : /home/abuild/rpmbuild/SOURCES/quake2xp-svn.1286/build
[ 16s] Checking for 'gcc' (c compiler) : /usr/bin/gcc
[ 16s] Checking for program pkg-config : /usr/bin/pkg-config
[ 16s] Checking for 'sdl' : not found
[ 16s] The configuration failed

With SDL1.2 it works as intended (but get a bunch of compiler errors afterwards maybe I open up a new ticket if I can not solve it on my own)

to make SDL2 work, you need to make a lot of changes to the code. At this time, I don't have Linux, and there is no time to do it
