Bug Description

Starting with 3.7.2-1, audacious ship both GTK and Qt UI, but in the same binaries. In fact, libaudcore3 now depends on libqt5core5a.

That's problematic for Lubuntu to ship both toolkit at the same time (space on the ISO), and it's probably not so nice for people who want to keep their system slim.

Upstream here. I would recommend distributing only the GTK+ interface at this point since the Qt interface is still missing important features. If you do want to distribute the Qt interface, it would be better to do it in an alternative package (e.g. audacious-qt). Having both interfaces installed at once is really intended only for developers.

Thanks John for the comment.

I tested a workaround to disable the Qt build, trying to do the less intrusive changes to the packaging (the real change should be done by Debian). The debdiff is included. I'll upload it if there is no objection on it.

This bug was fixed in the package audacious - 3.7.2-1ubuntu1

---------------
audacious (3.7.2-1ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Disable building Qt interface, to not ship both GTK and Qt interfaces.
    It's a workaround until Debian build the 2 interfaces in 2 separates
    binaries. (see LP: #1600318)
   - debian/rules: remove --enable-qt
   - debian/libaudqt0.install: comment, since it's not build now.
   - debian/libaudqt0.symbols: comment symbols.
