[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#369412: libasound2: 1.0.11-5, 1.0.11-6 Broken, disables alsa

[David Baron]

Package: libasound2
Version: 1.0.11-5,6
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Alsa is unable to find any of its hw:# devices.
Disables all sound
Hangs up artsd

Error messages on bootup, however not recorded in any logs.
Easy enough to reproduce.
I downgraded to 1.0.11-3 from testing meanwhile.
