Description
Trying to rip out anything audio, vlc and phonon related from Whonix-Gateway.
[1]
sudo apt-get install phonon4qt5-backend-null
And also…
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get purge vlc*
sudo apt-get purge libvlc*
sudo apt-get autoremove
Still dependency hell.
sudo apt-get purge phonon-backend-gstreamer
Could a Debian bug.
reverse-depends phonon-backend-gstreamer
Reverse-Depends
===============
* auralquiz
* phonon
Perhaps phonon should depend on virtual package phonon-backend rather than phonon-backend-gstreamer directly.

Results in a for the user confusing debconf question.

│ Missing back-end for Phonon4Qt5 │
│ │
│ Applications using Phonon4Qt5 (the KF 5 multimedia framework) will produce no audio or video output, │
│ because only a dummy Phonon back-end is installed on this system. This is typically an unintended │
│ configuration. │
│ │
│ To restore full Phonon4Qt5 multimedia capabilities, install one of the real Phonon4Qt5 back-end packages │
│ which are currently available for this system: │
│ │
│ phonon4qt5-backend-vlc (recommended), phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer │

Maybe it can be silenced.
