Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

This is the "Simple DirectMedia Layer" library. It provides a generic API for access to audio, keyboard, mouse, and display framebuffer across multiple platforms. This package is provided for corner cases when sdl2_compat is insufficient. To use original SDL2, exercise with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib64/SDL2" mechanism. SDL2 uses dlopen, so if you experience problems under X11, check again that libXrandr2 and libXi6 are in fact installed.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
