Public bug reported:

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 ?
