Bug Description

please promote libkate, needed as b-d/d for vorbis-tools; it's a library package, not pulling any other packages to main. package maintenance looks sane.

the 0.3.7 version is from December 2009, there is a newer version in Debian unstable available

The alternative is to drop the kate support from vorbis-tools.

i think we can just use --without-kate for maverick and properly review this codec thing after release.

from what i understand vorbis-tools ftbfs now because of this. RC for release. building it --without-kate should work and we can avoid pulling in more codec libs into main at this point in cycle.

seems to build without libkate-dev with the patch from above. but i am not so sure how to test vorbis-tools ... to see if they are still useful this way.

uploaded. this seems to be safe. vorbis-tools was never built with libkate in Ubuntu. no regression compared to lucid.

Hi, I (author of libkate) have been pointed to here, and, for the record, the optional dependency on liboggz is for the tools from liboggz, which are only optionally used for the "make test" target.
The library and its tools do not need liboggz, and configure ought to set things up just fine if liboggz isn't there.
