Bug Description

As you warning starting Pitivi:

pycanberra not found on the system

This is considered a "soft dependency". But the users are consufed, because there are not a package in Ubuntu, Linux Mint or other distro with this name or similar, because it is a simple script as wrapper of libcamberra:

In 15.10, pitivi starts but on the command line it says:

Missing soft dependency:
- pycanberra not found on the system
    -> enables sound notifications when rendering is complete

with no means to fix this via apt-get. Please fix this.

Any update with this? It would be nice have this in the next release of Ubuntu, since it still not present in Ubuntu 16.10
