Description Alexander E. Patrakov 2009-09-13 03:40:52 UTC
Pulseaudio initscript contains:

       if egrep -q '^[[:space:]]*load-module[[:space:]]+module-udev-detect' "$script"; then
           needs="${needs} hald"
       fi

Is this right, given that pulseaudio uses udev, not HAL, in this configuration? This also may or may not lead to wrong runtime dependencies.

Yes, I know that nobody should be using this initscript, because it is for system mode. I am not using it, only reading diffs.

Reproducible: Always
