Severity: important

Hi,

currently libgstreamer-interfaces-perl cannot be built on non-Linux
architectures, because it build-depends on gstreamer0.10-alsa and
alsa-utils, which exist on Linux only (since ALSA in specific to Linux).
It seems they are used in a test of the test suite, although it seems
to skip checks if there is no alsamixer available; hence, the proposed
change is to make the gstreamer0.10-alsa and alsa-utils build
dependencies restricted to linux architectures.
(Note that wildcard archs are officially supported in Policy >= 3.9.1,
while the packaging is still at 3.8.4.)

Thanks,
