  Isn't that too much of action for the original problem of people
selecting it to build SDL apps and having problems due to this?
There's nothing wrong with libsdl-qpe per se (patching matter is
highly subjective), it's just the SDL implementation for OPIE/QTopia.

  So if it's considered harmful to build against it, let's kill any
virtual/libsdl source-package overrides using it. But both libsdl-x11
and libsdl-qpe should RPROVIDE same virtual package to the package
manager.
