[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#801652: octave-psychtoolbox-3: remove obsolete package octave-audio from Recommends

[Mike Miller]

Package: octave-psychtoolbox-3
Version: 3.0.12.20150725.dfgs1-2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Please remove octave-audio from the Recommends list. This package has
been removed from unstable as it was no longer functional and has been
superseded by functions now present in octave >= 4.0.0.

As far as I can tell, only /usr/share/psychtoolbox-3/PsychBasic/Snd.m
contains a call to the sound() function. The sound and soundsc functions
had already been patched out of octave-audio because they are now
provided by octave itself.

Thanks!
