** Description changed: If you remove he pulseaudio package without also removing configuration files, it is not possible to log into a GNOME session, due to /usr/bin /pulse-session no longer existing. Test case: With the existing pulseaudio package from the archive: 1. remove but don't purge pulseaudio from your system. 2. Attempt to log into GNOME, and receive a failure. With the pulseaudio package from proposed: 1. Remove but don't purge pulseaudio from your system. 2. Attempt to log into GNOME, which should be successful. Regression potential: Minimal, this fix checks for /usr/bin/pulse-session and whether it is executable before starting it. + + This does not need to be fixed in jaunty, as this file is no longer + needed, due to the newer pulseaudio being started by a different + mechanism. This file was also to reduce a race condition, one that + should no longer exist in jaunty, once a new libcanberra is uploaded, + being built against pulseaudio in jaunty.
