Other questions to ask yourself before splitting packages up:

Is it not possible to include -x and -sdl version in the 
same package, which makes it in one package?

Is it too large?

Also, is it worth having -x version when there is -sdl version ?
(is both of them maintained in a good shape or is only one of them?)



Note: Splitting packages up causes more work, and maintenance
cost.
