I had a closer look at the dependencies: None of the four explicitly
mentioned dependencies under "Depends:". I was able to manually remove
them and record audio afterwards.
But: It seems that there are dependencies missing. I installed
audio-recorder in a fresh Testing installation and it did not work. I
got an error like "Unable to init server.". I could fix this by
installing gome-core, but I am not sure, which package is actually needed.
Since audio-recorder is GUI-based it is quite obvious that some kind of
desktop environment should be installed. But how to put this into
debian/control ?
Yours
David
