It is sensible to depend on a library.

It is not sensible for a library to depend on or recommend a daemon!

So the problem is in libroar. See [bug#608807].

This bug#612887 should therefore either be closed, more elegantly be 
force-merged with #608807, or even more elegantly be tagged as depending 
on #608807.
