Nothing provides liballeg-devel since allegro was updated to version 5.0. And allegro 5.0 no longer provides allegro-config, so even using the new devel package won't do any good. So what would you propose we 'rebuild'?
So, allegro stopped being available as a shared library? That's an odd change which I wouldn't have expected. I have not looked into the details of the allegro package yet and just skimmed over the spec file of the dumb package. I'm well aware that rebuilds don't make missing build dependencies reappear. I just saw what OBS complaining about and those were just the runtime libraries when I took a quick look but I must have overlooked the message about "liballeg-devel" then.
Anyway: fixing the package for the sake of it 'not failing' is not exactly what I'm after. This package is old/stale and as demonstrated,. unmaintained. Nobody even noticed it not building for 4 months. So unless there is actually a REASON to keep it, I'm not willing to just have a 'build fix' accepted.
But fixing old stuff is fun. Deleting stuff is too easy :P. Adrian
