Hi
Since I am just a comperativly inexperienced user, it took me some time to get pulseaudio working (Digging the forum to change the asound.conf, getting vlc to work with pulse by the aur-package). I think it would be great having a package group, with which I could install all this stuff at once, alongside with the necessary configuration (asound.conf). So do I, not really complex, but you have to do it again when you re-install system or do it again for anyone else, which could be boring.
However I can't really assess the packaging problems, so if this isn't possible, bad luck.
But I would really appreciate it. I support this idea, and in fact I don't meet any problem with Fedora since version 11, which (I mean Fedora or pulseaudio) runs well on my wife's laptop, so I think it's time to adapt it someway.
Thanks
Benedikt

I could make PulseAudio installation significantly easier by putting specially-built packages (e.g. sdl-pulse, openal-pulse) into [community] and grouping them in a "pulse" group.
This group would also include a "pulse-asoundrc" package containing a pulse-configured asound.conf, as well as depending on alsa-plugins.
Should I go ahead with this? Any suggestions?
