dependency chain of emacs23 should contain libcanberra-gtk-module

[Paul Gevers]

I am pretty sure that this bug does not belong to emacs, but that it where I encountered the problem. Please reassign where appropriate.

When I run emacs I get the message '''Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"''' This is solved by installing libcanberra-gtk-module, as shown below:

paul@stromboli ~ $ emacs
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
paul@stromboli ~ $ sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module

Forgot to mention that I run Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu.

I've been running Kubuntu 11.10 for a while now and I didn't have this problem until I installed cheese. That required a bunch of packages. I'm wondering if one of those packages didn't do something to emacs. As the OP mentioned the solution is to install libcanberra-gtk-module.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
