we have different opinion on what is a bug an what are legit maintainer decisions. optional pulseaudio support is surely not a bug: pulseaudio is not optional at all in slackware 14.2 and I explained why we cannot consider it optional even in the next Slackware release: stuff in /extra is not part of a Slackware full installation and we support just that. that said, is up to the maintainer if they want to add a switch in their SlackBuilds to make pulseaudio optional (with pulseaudio enabled by default, of course), and it's up to the users to use it (under their own responsibility) or not.
