Presumably it's the ones that aren't "worth > supporting" that get closed WONTFIX. There are two separate categories to consider: "worth supporting in PulseAudio", vs. "worth supporting in Fedora" I think we've established that there are a number of cases in the latter category which _don't_ fit into the former. And those are the ones which have been closed WONTFIX. And it's fine for the PulseAudio folks to say that -- PulseAudio deliberately _doesn't_ set out to be all things to all people. It's just that the scope of PulseAudio is a little _too_ limited for Fedora to stomach. So we need a way to restore functionality for those users who fall outside the PA scope -- for the moment, shipping gnome-alsamixer (as decided by FESCo today) will bridge that gap. I'm not sure if we'll find a better solution than that in the future. I don't think we're just going to decide that Fedora doesn't care about these users -- and from what I saw today I don't think it's likely that the PA folks will decide that they _do_ care. So it looks like if we keep PulseAudio as the core around which Fedora audio support is based, we're _always_ going to need to keep something extra to fill the functionality gap. -- David Woodhouse Open Source Technology Centre David.Woodhouse@xxxxxxxxx Intel Corporation -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
