neverputt/ball have recently been ported to sdl2 and iirc correctly there were news stories because of the wayland support.

If I interpret the dependencies correctly this is already the Wayland version.
Great. Unfortunately ScummVM is still stuck with SDL 1.2 because SDL 2.0 dropped support for CD audio (and CD-ROM in general).

Very nice material! Oh, 3-level submenus - I miss them dearly, it's almost like talking about long-lost love. I take them any day, getting rid of "tablet experience" in a heartbeat.

Actually, there is also already a ScummVM version in nemo:devel:apps which has SDL 2.0 as dependency:

iirc correctly, scummvm is able to make use of audio files in place of the original cd, so why worry about cdaudio support? you have to name them track1.??? be it mp3, ogg or flac. multidisc games have some special cases.

Wonko: That's very interesting, glad to see it there. Possibly it's not simply upstream ScummVM, but somebody patched it to work with SDL 2.0, since according to official ScummVM developers it's not going to support SDL 2.0 until later time. It doesn't build with SDL 2.0 from the stock source.

Android_808: Whatever their reasons are, ScummVM main tree needs to support some legacy stuff. But this new port possibly disabled some features, since most game indeed have no need for CD audio.

Just a question: how will Wayland affect 'chroot' apps like Maemo's Easydebian? I guess console applications will run OK, but graphical ones? LibreOffice, GIMP...?

mced: They won't be able to run since they depend on X. Unless someone will implement XWayland extension.
