[Bug 364962] Re: [jaunty] using 20090420.1 alternate or 20090421.2 dvd (any frontend) image results in pulseaudio being installed by default

[Colin Watson]

OK, thanks. This log indicates that pulseaudio is not in fact installed
for installations from the alternate CD. In that case I think we're left
with Steve's (very plausible) hypothesis for why it's pulled in for DVD
installations:

  12:05 <slangasek> cjwatson: regarding pulseaudio being pulled in on
Kubuntu DVD, it appears to be part of the kubuntu-dvd-live task via
openjdk-6-jre

It's only a Recommends, so in principle ubiquity could decide to remove
this. Nevertheless, I'm reluctant to deal with this by way of a ubiquity
fix because it's *also* a problem on the live DVD filesystem. We could
fix this in livecd-rootfs (apt-get install kubuntu-dvd-live^
pulseaudio-), or we could blacklist pulseaudio in the Kubuntu dvd-live
seed, or we could drop the Recommends to a Suggests in openjdk-6-jre.
We'll have to look at this in more detail to see which option is best.
