Package: csound Version: 1:4.23f12-3 Severity: wishlist It would be very useful to be able to install csound without having to pull in X11 and fltk.
Rationale: While there are some ongoing efforts to GUIfy csound, it has been traditionally a command-line application, and many use cases these days still require only the CLI interface. On headless boxes, it would be great to be able to install csound without having to pull in the graphics related libraries and therefore keep the install small. If the idea is generally acceptable by you, please let me know, I'd be willing to write a patch for this if you like. However, I wont if it is just going to sit in BTS forever :-). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.1-rt-v0.7.50-22 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages csound depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfltk1.1c102 1.1.6-5 Fast Light Toolkit shared librarie ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.6-7 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2 X Window System client libraries m csound recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- CYa, Mario
