Unusable libsdl_mixer as a part of ia32-libs or ia32-libs-sdl

[NY00123]

In Ubuntu 7.10 (64-bit), ia32-libs* comes with libSDL_mixer (currently /usr/lib32/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0.2.4 and the symlink libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0).
However, it's unusable because it depends on the following unresolved dependencies: libvorbisfile.so.3, libvorbis.so.0, libogg.so.0, libsmpeg-0.4.so.0.

While it's not a new issue, maybe at least one of the following can be made:
1. Remove libSDL_mixer (I prefer to not).
2. Include the missing libraries.
3. Recompile SDL_mixer so it doesn't depend on those extra libs.

If someone chooses solution 3, maybe the same should be done with the ordinary libsdl-mixer1.2 and libsdl-mixer1.2-dev packages (32-bit and 64-bit).

* In Ubuntu 7.04, the relevant package might be ia32-libs-sdl, but the issue is the very same.

which are the direct dependencies?

ldd /usr/lib32/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x56555000)

Right now it's possible to manually get the missing libraries and put in /usr/lib32 .

The current libsdl-mixer in hardy does not depend on those any more, so this should be fixed now.

[NY00123 (ny00)]

Great to hear that. Now, we may wait for the stable release of Hardy, or get an alpha right now.
However, is that maybe possible to make the 32-bit SDL_mixer functional for 64-bit Gutsy users?
(via solution 2 or solution 3; 3 seems to be the better choice)
Technically SDL_mixer can also be removed from ia32-libs for now, as it's unusable.

[NY00123 (ny00)]

The bug is now reproduced on version 8.10.

Output from `ldd /usr/lib32/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0 | grep not`:
 libmikmod.so.2 => not found
 libvorbisfile.so.3 => not found
 libsmpeg-0.4.so.0 => not found

It looks like this library now depends again on libvorbisfile and libsmpeg; libmikmod is also a new dependency not available in ia32-libs.

This bug was fixed in the package ia32-libs - 2.7ubuntu4

---------------
ia32-libs (2.7ubuntu4) jaunty; urgency=low

  * fetch-and-build:
    - add libsqlite3-0, needed as a dependency of libnss3-1d (LP: #326311).
    - add libmikmod2 and libsmpeg0 needed as dependencies of libsdl-mixer1.2
      (LP: #154883).
    - add libcanberra-gtk-module and its dependencies (libcanberra-gtk0,
      libcanberra0 and libtdb1)
    - add libsdl-image1.2 and python2.5 (LP: #277454)
    - add missing dependencies:
      - libcelt0 for libjack0
      - libsmbios2 for libhal1
      - libspeexdsp1 and liboil0.3 for libpulsecore9
      - libavahi-common3 and libavahi-client3 for libpulse-browse0
      - libgail18 for libgnomecanvas2-0
    - drop libartsc0, which is now obsolete.
  * debian/rules:
    - automatically create all missing .so symlinks in /lib32 and /usr/lib32 as
      the manual list of links was always out of sync and incomplete
      (LP: #277772, #309841).
  * Freshen packages (as of Jaunty beta1) (LP: #338145, #325098, #337210)
