Hey Paul,

Nice to hear from you again. MegaGlest I will liaise with, but Spring
RTS is already aware of my effort to Debianize streflop:

    https://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=5058

This is partially why I had prepared a PPA, for situations like that
(or at least for those developers using Ubuntu):

    https://launchpad.net/~kip/+archive/ubuntu/streflop

After some discussion upstream (Spring RTS), they were at first
reluctant to rely on an external package (or even pkg-config at build
time for that matter!), but eventually they came around. Nevertheless,
I still haven't heard back from them on their efforts to test the
package.
