Package: liballegro4.4 Version: 2:4.4.2-4 Severity: wishlist Hi all,
I just spend quite a while figuring out why our 'ballz' package didn't play the music tune as it used to. I eventually understood that I needed to install liballegro4.4-plugin-alsa, which is recommended by liballegro4.4, but is not a dependency. You'll have figured out that I do not automatically install recommended packages. As a package developer, I'd like to make it clear that 'ballz' depends on sound being available - I don't want people to mistakenly believe it's a silent game. I typically do not have this issue with SDL where sound is available by default. So I'm wondering whether it's better to add a dependency to 'liballegro4.4-plugin-alsa' in 'ballz' or in 'liballegro4.4'. Thoughts?
