Bug#360375: boson: not installable in sid and FTBFS

[Laurent Bonnaud]

Package: boson
Version: 0.11-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Hi,

here is the problem:

# apt-get install boson boson-base
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  boson-base: Depends: libopenal0 but it is not installable
E: Broken packages


Trying to rebuild from sources leads to the following error:

$ fakeroot apt-get -b source boson
