Do you think it is really wise to have gPodder depend on PulseAudio? There are many other audio systems in use and as far as I understand THP, there is no reason one would need PA to run GPodder. What happens if someone installs JACK without PA or goes straight ALSA as I have done (and many other people who have hardware and other issues with PA)? I personally think having people without PA who install gPodder missing the Bluetooth features is much more sensible than the reverse which means anyone who doesn't want PA can't use gPodder from the repos. The majority of people will have PA and the Bluetooth stuff by default anyway, so they would never notice if that dependency was dropped. Also, the Bluetooth stuff is not needed to run gPodder if I understand Thomas correctly (and by looking at the .deb package). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.gpodder.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ gPodder-Bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/gpodder-bugs
