Source: libtheora Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi,
First of all, thanks for taking care of libtheora in Debian! What do you think about the attached trivial patch that removes the build dependency on graphviz? As far as I could see, the libtheora build does not really check for or use any of the graphviz tools at all; it seems that the packages built with and without the graphviz dependency are identical. This patch was extracted from my Git repository at https://gitorious.org/roam-debian-bootstrap/libtheora-debian/commits/roam-drop-graphviz I originally started working on this as part of the "Bootstrappable Debian" Google Summer of Code project, as some of our tools seemed to indicate the presence of a circular build dependency that could be removed if src:libtheora stopped build-depending on graphviz, but right now this is not part of the Feedback Arc Set. Still, dropping an unused build dependency looks like a welcome simplification to me :) Thanks again for your work on libtheora and Debian in general!
