retitle -1 salome: Should not depend on libopencascade-visualization-dev
severity -1 normal
thanks

Hi Denis,

This bug has been fixed in alioth for a couple of weeks now, so I'm
marking it pending.

I'll fix the -visualization-dev issue next, and test the fix, then mark
the new bug pending when I can get it to work.

Thanks again!

-Adam
