As I understand it, pulseaudio is in "main" and so is only allowed to depend on other packages in "main". soxr on the other hand is in "universe", see: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libsoxr
So you may have to work through the process of getting libsoxr moved into main before we can update pulseaudio to explicitly depend on it: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574746 Title: Enable support for libsoxr Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'd like to ask to enable support for libsoxr-based resamplers in the official Ubuntu packages for pulseaudio. The upstream already supports libsoxr and automatically detects its availability, so the only change really needed is to add the build dependency to debian/control. The resamplers based in libsoxr offer better quality and better performace while introducing more delay compared to the speex resamplers that are used by default. The resamplers are documented in the man pages of pulseaudio in Ubuntu 16.04 but unfortunately are not enabled at build time ('pulseaudio --dump-resample-methods' doesn't list them). I've built local packages with libsoxr and verified that the resampler works as expected.
