When the packages pulseaudio and pulseaudio-alsa

I agree. After a person uses Linux for a while, they start to notice that
most distros are pretty identical. The only things that change are package
names, package manager, packages used, directory structure (where do we
install packages, man files, etc), and the philosophy/goals of that distro.

You should speak to GNOME about why they require PA. If Debian doesn't

Arch Linux stands by being as close as possible to upstream. If upstream
makes a decision, Arch follows it. Arch hardly patches anything at all. So
basically whatever packages you get when you try to install something, is
the way that upstream wanted those packages to be installed.

Do not install an application requiring it?
You'll need to provide context about what you're trying to accomplish
(clear and simple goals) and what you've already done (eg. I ran command

Pulse recently replaced esound as the dependent sound server for
gnome[1], esound has been marked dead.
You might have some relative success if you drop pulse and do some
per-application configuration to redirect their default output to alsa
or OSS. While this would work for applications such as g
you can't use gnome 3 without pulse audio. if you don't want to use pulse
audio, consider using another DE or WM.
You could do that by doing pacman -Rsc pulseaudio .. but be extremely
careful with that command. It deletes everything recursively down
(cascading as man pacman puts it).

I believe you have to remove each package that pulseaudio depends on. You
can reinstall them after.

Hi :)
people told me that Arch Linux will not force me to install PA. Today I
continued to set up my Arch Linux. A cold still hinder me to work very
long on my computer, so until now Google didn't help me to find an easy

install
