Pulseaudio package maintainer did so. I bet Qt/KDE team would also liked to have more time. On the other hand the deprecation of gconf module in Pulseaudio is quite old I believe. What is the functionality that will break without the gconf or gsettings module? I think building without gconf may be good enough as an interim solution if not too much stuff breaks for our Debian Unstable / Testing users. Thansk, -- Martin
