[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#974624: alsa-tools: Please migrate to FLTK 1.3

Source: alsa-tools
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal
Usertags: fltk1.1-to-1.3

alsa-tools still builds against FLTK 1.1, for which it is long past
time for Debian to drop support. Please migrate to 1.3, which is
likely as simple as adjusting alsa-tools's build dependencies and
ensuring that it uses UTF-8 rather than a legacy text encoding.

Also, please note that fltk-config (in both branches) differs from
typical *-config scripts in having --libs yield paths to *static*
libraries. If your build has been making use of this syntax, please
substitute --ldflags to obtain proper dynamic linkage. (FLTK does not
yet offer pkg-config metadata, sorry.)
