Dear PulseAudio and Debian folks, I am aware that is not an upstream issues per se, but indirectly it is as written above, so I hope it is alright to post this message here on the list. Although during the last years PulseAudio is doing its job pretty well, there are still quite some people out there thinking it is a mess. And indeed looking at the Debian bug tracking system [1] a lot of bugs are reported there. There are 145 reports [2] most of them concerning upstream things. Since for a long time, Debian did not package the latest PulseAudio version, I guess a lot of them are fixed already. Debian?s large user base experienced a lot of these problems and therefore disabled PulseAudio and have not tried newer versions. Are there any ideas how that situation could be improved? I guess a dedicated maintainer for the PulseAudio Debian package would be useful. Some Ubuntu developers and Sjoerd have done a great job already and at least got new (great) working packages out. If they had more time, they would already deal with the reports, so since this is not the case, the question is, how we can solve that situation. Any ideas? Thanks, Paul [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=pulseaudio;dist=unstable [2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/pulseaudio.html -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
