Unhappily, I am still using debian, and my testing was done on unstable. Obviously I did not invoke mpv (etc) with "apulse mpv", so I was disturbed with it linking to libpulse-simple.so nevertheless. This was on a system with no pulseaudio, only alsa. Maybe putting apulse in its own folder will fix things. Not sure whether I can try to install that package on debian, but if not I imagine that I should be able to re-compile from source for a debian test. Hope to be running devuan real soon now.... ael _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
