[Pkg-pulseaudio-devel] Bug#528405: new pulseaudio with uncomplete dependencies

[Moritz Molle]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.15-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software


Said pulseaudio-package doesn't enforce the installation of a package 
with libpulsecommon-0.9.15.so in it, so now executing pulseaudio just 
delivers following message:

pulseaudio: error while loading shared libraries: 
libpulsecommon-0.9.15.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory

If I try to install libpulse0 which, according to apt-file, contains 
said library, it says that it has to remove pavucontrol. I don't want that.

I have marked this bug as critical, because it breaks all programs 
which try to load the pulseaudio-sound-libraries as well. (I have set 
FLASH_FORCE_PULSEAUDIO=1, and now my iceweasel doesn't start anymore, 
that's not acceptable)

apt-get should have refused to update pulseaudio in the first place.
