Hmm.

$ dpkg --fsys-tarfile libsdl1.2-dev_1.2.14-3_i386.deb |tar xOf - ./usr/lib/libSDL.la 
# libSDL.la - a libtool library file
# Generated by ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 2.2.6
#
# Please DO NOT delete this file!
# It is necessary for linking the library.

# The name that we can dlopen(3).
dlname='libSDL-1.2.so.0'

# Names of this library.
library_names='libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3 libSDL-1.2.so.0 libSDL.so'

# The name of the static archive.
old_library='libSDL.a'

# Linker flags that can not go in dependency_libs.
inherited_linker_flags=''

# Libraries that this one depends upon.
dependency_libs=''

# Names of additional weak libraries provided by this library
weak_library_names=''

# Version information for libSDL.
current=11
age=11
revision=3

# Is this an already installed library?
installed=yes

# Should we warn about portability when linking against -modules?
shouldnotlink=no

# Files to dlopen/dlpreopen
dlopen=''
dlpreopen=''

# Directory that this library needs to be installed in:
libdir='/usr/lib'

This looks fine to me...  Is it different on other archs, or?

Cheers,
Julien
