This isn't automatic because a custom package is created using the=20
PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN
variable, so I need to explicitly set its dependencies.

Currently, when SDL_TESTS is enabled, the test binaries have SDL2 libs=20
statically
compiled in. However, I'm sending a revision to add support for dynamic=20
linking instead.
This is needed because customers using the sysroots to cross-compile=20
their applications
have the SDL2 libraries available in their build environment, but the=20
binaries can't run
since those libraries don't exist in the target filesystem.
