I want to install deadbeef but run into a dependency problem. Deadbeef depends on deadbeef-plugins which depends on libcdio10 which is not installable. A search on Debian packages reveals amd64 (which I need) and i386 are not available in sid, but are available in squeeze. Would it be safe to install the squeeze version before installing deadbeef?
Install it from debian multimedia.
I do not longer package deadbeef.
You can always simulate the installation process to see whether there might be breakage or dependency problems. So, if you enable the Debian stable repo in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, then you can test your packages like this:
apt-get -s install libcdio10 and check the output.
When I tried it on my 64-bit siduction system, I found I already had that package installed, so apparently it is not a problem -- it must have previously been in sid.
Oooops -- sorry towo you were too quick for me. :)
Thanks towo and dibl. Installed successfully from multimedia, which depends on already installed libcdio13. This version does not depend on deadbeef-plugins but still plays the formats I need (mp3, ogg vorbis, flac & aac).
Maybe deadbeef and deadbeef-plugins should be removed from siduction repo as the version there depends on libcdio10 which is only in squeeze.
