Package: ecasound Version: 2.9.0-1 Severity: important Tags: patch Hi,
Your package depends on the obsolete 1.8 version of Ruby. Ruby1.8 is scheduled to be removed before the Jessie release. You can apply the trivial patch I am inlining here to make it work under newer Ruby releases (including 1.9.1, which will be Jessie's default). This patch also drops the transitional libecasound-ruby1.8 package, as, since it was introduced pre-wheezy, it's no longer necessary. Please note that I did *not* check the package works fine with this change made — It just makes the dependency go away. Several packages are known to use a syntax that clashes with Ruby >= 1.9.1; please test before uploading! Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------ diff --git a/debian/control b/debian/control index 69cc9a7..9e5a1b4 100644 --- a/debian/control +++ b/debian/control @@ -192,10 +192,7 @@ Description: transitional dummy package for python-ecasound Package: ruby-ecasound Architecture: all Section: ruby -Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ruby1.8, ecasound -Provides: libecasound-ruby -Replaces: libecasound-ruby1.8 (<< 2.8.1-6) -Breaks: libecasound-ruby1.8 (<< 2.8.1-6) +Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ruby | ruby-interpreters, ecasound Description: multitrack-capable audio recorder and effect processor (ruby bindings) Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing.
