[Bug 2139279] Re: remove alsa-driver from the archive; obsolete

[Timo Aaltonen]

yep, apport/apport-symptoms need to be changed, the bugs should be filed
against the kernel but the source package should be used as there is no
'stable' binary name to use as the ABI number changes each upload..

  alsa-driver package was removed from Debian in 2012, and the newer
  alsa-base package in 2017. We should drop the reverse-depends on alsa-
  base and remove src:alsa-driver.
