sonic-visualiser requires 'libid3tag.so.16.2()(64bit)'

Hi, tried to install sonic-visualiser and I found an unfulfilled dependency with ‘libid3tag.so.16.2()(64bit)’
Actually libid3tag is installed, but provides these files according to YaST2:
/usr/lib64/libid3tag.so.0
/usr/lib64/libid3tag.so.0.3.0

Is there a simple solution to this issue other than downloading files from non-official repositories?

Also (not a criticism!) I thought that for the software provided by the main repo there would be some kind of dependencies check before being included? Is that the case?

Thanks for any advice.

There is no problem on my Leap 15.4 machine with these version from the main repository

Your program requires newer/different version of libid3tag. Version in Leap 15.4 provides

Provides       : [4]
    libid3tag.so.0()(64bit)
    libid3tag = 0.15.1b-3.14
    libid3tag0 = 0.15.1b-3.14
    libid3tag0(x86-64) = 0.15.1b-3.14

Where your program sonic-visualiser comes from?

Hm… you are both right. Thank you.
I had the Multimedia repository enabled. I disabled it and everything is fine. Apologies for the false alarm.

Just a further question: shouldn’t that package in the Multimedia repo have the dependency resolved?
I had a similar problem with Ardour and a missing library (also was the case in 15.3).

I think, multimedia:apps is building against multimedia:libs:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/multimedia%3Alibs/libid3tag

But I would not use multimedia:libs, it can break Packman…

Oh, I see, thank you for the clarification.
Thank you everybody for your replies.
