Thanks. I might update the upstream guide with these links.

I had an answer from upstream ; they're aware of the problems it
caused in the past and now want to keep compatibility. As a matter of
fact, 1.5.2 was just added to UT and does not break API:

http://upstream-tracker.org/versions/libtcod.html

I'll prepare a patch for upstream setting the SONAME to 1 (same as the
major version).
