It seems not for me and apparently it seems not for Ron Lee as well (See 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=659974#37).

Moreover in that thread you proposed to use dependency on the unversioned 
libsnack2 in order to solve the issue with wavesurfer
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=659974#57
and now you are changing the package without offering any similar possibility.
