xcdroast requires icedax but not installed

[Nick Presta]

Binary package hint: xcdroast

I'm using Kubuntu Gutsy (7.10)

Version: xcdroast 0.98+0alpha15-11.1

I went to install xcdroast today (sudo apt-get install xcdroast). It wanted to install 'cdda2wav' and 'xcdroast', so I agreed and xcdroast was installed.
Running it from Konsole showed the following:
** (xcdroast:10381): WARNING **: No /usr/bin/icedax installed
** (xcdroast:10381): WARNING **: (Invalid lib-directory? Check -l option)

xcdroast failed to start.
Searching on the web didn't reveal much so I figured I would install 'icedax' on my own. A simple `sudo apt-get install icedax`, which installed 'icedax 9:1.1.6-1ubuntu3', seems to have solved the problem.

The reason I'm filing this bug is because I'm wondering if icedax should be a dependency of xcdroast. I can't get xcdroast to run without icedax so I would imagine it's required.

Confirmed, thanks for your bug report.

As a comment, Debian's cdda2wav is nowadays a dummy package from the same cdrkit source package that icedax is from, and points to icedax. There will be a Debian update of xcdroast that depends on icedax directly, instead of cdda2wav.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  xcdroast: Depends: mkisofs (>= 4:2.0)
                  Depends: cdda2wav (>= 4:2.0)
E: Broken packages

You may want to switch to genisoimage too.
