I don't think that TDE depends on pulse, at least not the base libraries. I have not *all* TDE packages installed, but quite a copious install and there is no pulse (on Devuan ascii). If you find a pulse program/package you can try to find out why it is installed with this handy command: $ aptitude why <package> Kind regards, Stefan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
