Package: pitivi Version: 0.99-2+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
since GStreamer 1.14 pitivi may fail to start when freshly installed because of a missing dependency: $ sudo apt-get install pitivi $ LANG=C pitivi ERROR - The following hard dependencies are unmet: ================================================== - gtk not found on the system Missing soft dependency: - GSound not found on the system -> enables sound notifications when rendering is complete This is because the GStreamer gtk stuff has moved to a separate package, installing gstreamer1.0-gtk3 fixes the issue: $ sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-gtk3 Having an explicit dependency would be great. BTW I've seen other users bitten by this split in GStreamer plugins. I do like the split but maybe things can be improved a little: - Recommend or a least suggest the split packages from the one they are split from. - Use a more familiar naming? Someone proposed something like "gstreamer1.0-plugins-good-gtk3" but I am not sure if you meant to hide the -good/-bad/-ugly origin on purpose here. As always, thanks.
