** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #968584 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=968584 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to vim in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884583 Title: vim is dependent on libcanberra0 in Ubuntu 20.04, had no such dependency in Ubuntu 18.04 Status in vim package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: which pulls in libasound and some alsa packages which I am not sure why it is useful and desired on most text-only/headless systems. In Debian I also see this dependency arisen with Bullseye/testing and Sid/unstable (but not with Buster/stable) but I don't see any mention of this introduction and its usefulness in the package's changelog. Could the reason of this dependency creation please be investigated, its usefulness evaluated, and if possible, this dependency to be made optional for vim builds ? Surprisingly, installing vim-nox also pulls in libcanberra0. vim-tiny does not pull in libcanberra0, but it also does not have syntax highlighting. What should I do to have syntax highlighting without libcanberra0 overhead ?
