Package: festival
Version: 1.4.3-17+b1
Severity: important

Hello Matthias,

festival packages dependencies are to complex and involve a lot of
circular dependencies. See the graphs

<http://debian.semistable.com/dot/festvox-kallpc16k_unstable.png>
and
<http://debian.semistable.com/dot/festvox-itapc16k_unstable.png>

Such circular dependencies are known to cause problems during
upgrade between stable release so should be avoided.

Since festvox-kallpc16k, festlex-cmu, festlex-poslex are data package,
it is quite likely they do not need actually to depend on festival and
removing these dependency would improve the situation, so I would
suggest you do so.
