Description Katherine Peeters 2021-09-10 00:48:59 UTC

For whatever reason, media-libs/libsdl installs manpages, but media-libs/libsdl2 does not. Also, I suspect installing manpages from both would create a conflict, since they share many function names, but I'm not sure exactly how that works.

Well I would say drop the SDL1 man pages because no one should develop against it now, and we're strongly considering dropping it in favour of libsdl-compat. However, SDL2 doesn't have any man pages except sdl2-config. It does support Doxygen though...
