Dear Maintainer,
The Konqueror installed - and set as the default browser - by Jessie 8 DVD#1 seems to have a dependency issue:
* Its default rendering method is WebKit,
* yet the WebKit requires gstreamer and the corresponding KDE Phonon backend phonon-backend-gsteramer, which are not installed automatically. (Only phonon-vlc installed as default.)
This leads to Konqueror being unable to play audio for e.g. HTML5 out-of-the-box, and a lot of hunting through Google being required to find this solution - it's taken me a couple of hours.
Perhaps sensible dependencies should be added, so that all the default settings for audio work right away, such as this and the sound theme mentioned in my other report.
I'm not sure if this is more an issue for the KDE team, so I apologise if so, but I err on the side of informing Debian first (and KDE requires me to register for some reason.)
Many thanks
D.
