The minecraft.deb for Debian Linux includes a dependency for libpango1.0-0.
This library package is obsolete and has been renamed in newer Debian systems.
Please replace the dependency on libpango1.0-0 by libpango-1.0-0

I reported this problem on Twitter and was asked to submit a suggestion. But the issue has been brought to Mojang's attention already at least twice. Can this please be fixed? There seems to be a difference between Ubuntu and Debian here, another Ubuntu user who reported the same issue saying that it was solved. But looking at the Debian package, libpango1.0-0 seems to have been a transitional package which has been removed for good. It would be good if the issue could be addressed from within Mojang.
All that seems to be required is to replace "libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0)" by "libpango-1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0)" in the control file.
Many thanks.
