I wish to request that once more we swap portaudio and portaudio19 between main and universe. Portaudio which is version 18 is currently in main, and portaudio19 is in universe. The only package that 
uses portaudio in main is espeak, which can be compiled against portaudio19.

I recently patched portaudio19 to work better with pulseaudio, and speech with accessibility tools in GNOME via espeak -> portaudio19 -> pulseaudio is a lot better than the current setup, 
espeak -> portaudio18 -> oss -> pulseaudio. Espeak itself can be built against pulseaudio, however that code is not known to be mature, and thats not useful for anyone not wanting to use pulseaudio.

Portaudio19 has been in main before, so a main inclusion report shouldn't be necessary. I can dig up the report if requested. I am also able to upload a new espeak revision to build it against 
portaudio19 once it is in main.

Thanks
