Googling for json implementations gives a lot of small libraries, it is not clear which one is needed as the pulse dep. I guess it could be the one at http://oss.metaparadigm.com/json-c/, but that website is out of order for some time now. The .tar file is only locatable through the packaging systems of various Linux distros/BSDs. Needless to say, such an unclear status of a dependency is not really helpfull in packaging PulseAudio. > We may yet remove this and write our own parser for the simple subset of > JSON formatting we use but there may ultimately be other reasons to keep > this longer term. > > But in the interests of simplicity, I'd certainly not be against any > native implementation patches that came along provided they were simple > and clean. > > Please test these changes.
