Dear mantainer: I would like to add myself to the voices that ask this to be fixed. It's really not ok to leave it the way it's right now. This bug completely breaks multiarch sound on 64 bit systems and that should be fixed asap, specially when it has been fixed in other systems ... since September 2012 !!! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opus/+bug/1056365
Also, the patch made by Pino Toscano can be applied directly to the opus source. With pbuilder the packages can easily be built, so I suggest everybody to give it a try. It's working nicely on my system. Thanks Pino :) Iván Lago.
