I think libx11-6 is missing a Pre-depends: debconf.
dpkg -i libx11-6*.deb debconf*.deb

Please add some documentation. I had to read the source just to
figure out how to enable it.

Package: icecast-server
Severity: minor
The following breaks icecast2:
- Install icecast-server
- Install icecast2
- Remove icecast-server
Because it removes the group `icecast', but icecast2 needs it. (Maybe
this should be filed against icecast2 instead? I don't know.)

README.Debian says you need to remove autoindex_module, but that
doesn't seem to be true (anymore). The mailing list said you can use
Options -Indexes instead of removing the module, but for me it even
works with Options +Indexes
