Installing "gstreamer010"? Which exact package did you mean?
Sorry for the lousy information, I was in a hurry :)
This is what I meant:

> Dependencies of type "Recommends" are quite
strong, perhaps you can explain me how you installed rhythmbox and/or
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good? It would help tracking why the Recommends
wasn't installed.
I installed Rhythmbox (or better, upgraded it) via Synaptic.
It actually depends on the plugins package, but surely not on the alsa
or esd packages.
Also, please confirm you have gstreamer0.10-plugins-good version
0.10.1-2.
I do, see up :)
If nothing depends on your gstreamer 0.8 packages, you can remove them
if you want (if you use aptitude, that should happen automatically).
I have some gnome stuff which still depends on gstreamer 0.8.
Here you say you use ESD, that's an important information, you should
probably manually install gstreamer0.10-esd if you want to use it.
There's no way to automate this at the GStreamer level as GStreamer is
used by KDE apps too.
I see. Actually it was enough for me to look at the new dependencies
(gstreamer0.10) to figure this out, maybe checking if gstreamer0.8-esd
is installed and *strongly* suggesting to install the 0.10 package in
some postinst script could help? Just a thought.
Thank you for your help!
