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?
I would suggest to apply for a jr. dev position so that the pulseaudio stuff could be moved to extra. That would save us from duplicating work by having both pulse and non-pulse packages. BTW, does adding pulse support make it a depends or optdepends? I would guess it depends on the package.
