I couldn't believe Debian had no package for SDL_ttf, so I went over
and did some digging (I mean, they have packages for everything and
their dogs (and their lice, too, most probably). While they didn't
have one at first glance, a second look showed that they just cleverly
renamed it so noone can find it. It's called libsdl-ttf2.0 or something.
Hope that helps.
