Hey ionmichI'm not too familiar with this specific package, but this webpage (Ubuntu package contents) suggests the following package contains libsdl-1.2.so.0: sudo apt install libsdl1.2debian
before installing you may want to do test the install by doing a " dry run" install: sudo apt-get install --dry-run libsdl1.2debian

okay, i guessed it wouldn't be easy Can I ask, are you running (1) Bodhi 32bit Legacy, (2) Bodhi 64 Standard or (3) Bodhi 64 bit HWE? I'm guessing either (2) or (3)? Additionally, just as a test can you also try the following and post results (it's a bit of a guess, so not that confident this will work). If it does, and you're using 64 bit Bodhi Install, it will probably install a complete i386 library base (which may take up some room / take some time to download). sudo apt-get install --dry-run libsdl1.2debian:i386
Obviously if you want to install for real the command would be: sudo apt install libsdl1.2debian:i386

Problem solved. Converted .rpm to .deb using alien and installed. Thanks for the help.

Out of interest, again (I say that a lot), is there not a deb already? Anyway, good work! Marking as solved.
