All features passed with x64-linux, usage test passed on x64-windows.

I confirmed that SDL2 and SDL3 can be concurrently installed.

Totally! Ill file an issue on their repo and see what they say 😁

The git SHA is a good idea I can do that.

Does this require any other changes?

@JavierMatosD Do you know why you asked for team review?

I'm asking for team review since these default features seem to enable APIs which is against our current policy. We accepted the sdl2 port's default-features but I think this was done erroneously or the policy was different when it was added.

As of libsdl-org/SDL#11310, SDL fails to build on Linux if neither X11 or Wayland is enabled

Any ETA on this?

MERGE plz 🔥☺️

To go along with this - are there any plans to add the SDL3 version of SDL_mixer and SDL_image?

I do have an sdl3 mixer port I can try to upstream. Not sure if that or SDL3_Image have had an ABI lock and a prerelease tag cut though

I do not have an SDL3_image port since i havent needed it

Only SDL3 is in API/ABI lock. None of SDL's satellite libraries are considered stable at this moment.

Thanks for the clarification 😁

This new port has uncontrolled dependencies with installation order problems. For example, it fails with hidapi and static libusb installed on android. This affects vcpkg CI (e.g. #42045).

There may be more issues, but due to pkg_check_modules it is difficult to track and control.

I also see copies of khronos headers which have ports in vcpkg.

The import prefix fails on ubuntu, because the config cmake is in vcpkg\packages\sdl3_x64-linux\share\sdl3\SDL3 vs on Windows vcpkg\packages\sdl3_x64-windows-static\share\sdl3 meaning that it is looking for the required include and lib files in share and not the actual package folder.

Edit: I was able to fix this using a patched overlay port, with this patch on root SDL3 CMakeLists.txt

That's the wrong location, indeed. But my diagnose is a little bit different. #42206.
