Thanks for the hint. I am not enough a Debian package pro though to want to
purge and deinstall its dependencies right now. I forgot and didn't check that
I was running experimental on that package and downgrading solved the problem
for now though sacrificing Phonon support. Knowing that in general the package
seems to work for other people I'd like to live with the current solution,
hoping (in a maybe too optimistic way) that future versions will solve the
issue. This said only if the problem doesn't affect other people where as I
could help out with further investigation.
close_bug()?
