What is the upstream location of that software? 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.
