Pulseaudio dependency, if Debian can do it ...

[rosea.grammostola]

Hi,

A group of (professional) Linuxaudio users prefer to have a system 
without Pulseaudio. How nice Pulseaudio can be for 'consumer audio', it 
can be a pain on a professional audio system. That's why some people 
prefer to stick with just ALSA and JACK. On most systems this is not a 
problem at all, like Fedora and even on Debian, but on Ubuntu it is.

This raises the question why ubuntu-desktop has Pulseaudio integrated in 
such a way that almost the whole desktop system seems to depend on it. 
There isn't a good way to remove Pulseaudio from Ubuntu! This is very 
ugly and not a good way to handle things in the Linux world.

Why? If you can remove pulseaudio easily on Debian, why is it so 
freaking hard on Ubuntu? What is the best place to report this major bug?

Thanks in advance,

\r
