severity 673178 serious
thanks

Hi,

as I consider this particular bug  an abuse of recommends that goes
against its definition in the debian policy, and given the high
popularity of libopenal1, this bug has a high impact which imho must be
fixed for wheezy. I'm thus marking it as release critical, i.e bumping
the severity to serious.
It's my understanding that libopenal1 works absolutely fine without
libroar-compat2 installed, so demoting this dependency to suggests looks
like the correct thing to do in this case.

Cheers,
Michael
