It isn't; this is due to forcing the GNOME 2.10 transition even though sound-juicer is not yet updated in testing (it's tightly intertwined with the C++ transition, and KDE in particular). I've asked Jordi Mallach to upload a meta-gnome2 package with a relaxed dependency on sound-juicer so that the GNOME metapackages can be installable in the meantime; the alternative would have been for GNOME 2.10 to be held out of testing for several more weeks until KDE was ready to transition, which would mean a forklift update of testing and growing frustration from maintainers being asked not to update their packages. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
