Linux SDL library requirements

Hello, I'm not perfectly sure if this is bug or feature, but on linux, while the official client works out of stock, DDNet client doesnt start at all. In console, it gives the following error:

./DDNet: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is DDNet client modified that much that it needs additional libraries to the original client or is this a bug?

Yeah, DDNet client uses SDL2 instead of SDL1.2. You have to install that, just as you had to install SDL1.2 for Teeworlds.

Already done, just wanted to know if intended.
Thanks for the clarification.
