package management - Missing dependency 'libtag1c2a' when installing Musique 1.4 on Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) - Ask Ubuntu

i made fresh install of ubuntu 16.10 (64bits) , i'm trying reinstall packages, including musique 1.4 deb 64bits package, worked fine on previous system (16.10, 64bits ), got dependency error libtag1c2a.

sudo dpkg -i musique64.deb  >> musique depends on libtag1c2a; however: >> package libtag1c2a not installed 

i tried install libgtag1c2a apt, failed, package not available. suggested remplacement packages (libtag1v5-vanilla:i386 libtag1v5:i386 libtag1v5-vanilla libtag1v5) doesn't make work either.

i found similar topic here , same bug reported in developer web site

[edit] solution tried:

• install musique 32bits deb package
• install musique 1.1 apt, works it's big regression
• install libtag1c2a trusty package : conflict libtag1v5
• sudo dpkg --force-depends -i package.deb

all right, well, since has come this... try this package (same packaging official ubuntu yakkety package, 1.4 source).

for paranoid (or want build 32 bits package), here's debian source packaging; source musique 1.4 here.

---

the package libtag1c2a available precise , trusty; in later versions renamed libtag1v5. ideally, developer should provide xenial+ package depends on latter, or @ least debian source package others can build one.

in meantime, can try install trusty libtag1c2a package; hovever note since libtag1c2a , libtag1v5 install same files, can't have both packages installed, if have packages depend on libtag1v5, won't work.

in case, since have required library, under package name, ignoring dependencies may work:

sudo dpkg --force-depends -i package.deb
