Upstream URL has changed and it would be nice to move to the newer build system instead of using setup.py

python-setuptools should be makedepends instead of depends

While not mandated by packaging standards, it'd be nice to bump up pkgrel to smooth out transition to the newly shipped Python 3.10

I've changed the upstream URL to github, GPG verification is no longer needed.

In order to make the GPG verification work, you have to import the key of Marcus von Appen: gpg --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu F5645D06D1395E36

These warnings appear, because the filesystem API for SDL2 is already included in pysdl2 (see https://bitbucket.org/marcusva/py-sdl2/commits/2d6920dbf2ee51f4f6bdf536a41ca202a5548e0f ) but not in the official SDL2 releases. So for now you can just ignore these warnings.

Oops. Fixed. I required the optional sdl2_image package. Still, the error message that got produced could have been much clearer than "Surface should be a surface". I'll send that upstream. I'm still getting the warnings though: python examples/helloworld.py /usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/sdl2/dll.py:74: UserWarning: function 'SDL_GetBasePath' not found in <CDLL 'libSDL2-2.0.so.0', handle 14c3520 at 7f8321b545d0>, using replacement (funcname, self._dll)) /usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/sdl2/dll.py:74: UserWarning: function 'SDL_GetPrefPath' not found in <CDLL 'libSDL2-2.0.so.0', handle 14c3520 at 7f8321b545d0>, using replacement (funcname, self._dll)) Using software rendering

The hello world example isn't running on my machine.
