Description Gabriel Kind 2019-02-11 12:31:52 UTC 
I can't autoreconf SDL image because it fails with the following error:

Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found (also README AUTHORS ChangeLog)

Please either provide these 4 files in the repo or add "foreign" to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in configure.in
