All, We've had a request to remove our SDL dependency in QEMU for SLE15 due to packaging issues. Since QEMU is as single sourced as much as possible, this has a bearing on what gets packaged for Tumbleweed and Leap 15 as well. It was about 5 few years ago that QEMU switched the default graphical library from SDL to GTK, but we continued to build SDL support in (-display sdl...), I don't really see any problem with removing our support for SDL in future QEMU packages, since for the most part this is a complete duplication of functionality. Although each has slightly different windowing characteristics, I hope anyone used to using SDL will not have an issue switching to use the GTK interface. I will propose that for openSUSE (Tumbleweed and Leap 15) we consider SDL support in the QEMU packages deprecated, allowing for a time period of adjustment and an opportunity to evaluate any feedback. My hope is that it won't disrupt any users of QEMU, or at least only require minor adjustments and we can remove it before Leap 15 is released. If you will be badly impacted by this change, please speak up, and we'll re-evaluate this decision based on that feedback. Thanks, Bruce Rogers
