** 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.
