Hey, some traffic on this mailing list :-)

I'm the author of ASC and very much like the idea of making a debian
package of ASC :-)

But regarding SDLmm, your message is the first one on this list for
more than 2 years, so I doubt if there is much usage of SDLmm apart
from ASC (which makes most of its graphic handling without SDLmm...).

We also have the option of merging the current SDLmm version into the
ASC source (there is a library directory with other libraries) and
don't bother about making two distinct packages.
