Bug Description

I've tried installing libvisual and the goom visualization
engine using the relevant gstreamer plugin,and libvisual0.2
but non of the visualization engines where recognized.

the solution? install xmms-goom
problem: i don't wan't to have xmms and its dependecies
installed, as i don't intend to use it.

thanks in advance!

This is fixed with the latest build of libvisual-plugins; can you verify with Dapper/6.06?

amarok is not compiled with libvisual support, because libvisual is not in main.

Amarok 1.4.1 will have libvisual required so I think you have to put libvisual in main and retract these considerations...

Hope to see backport in dapper too :)
