  Description     : Libsalsa is a library providing an ALSA interface on top of 
OSS

 This packages provides a compatibility layer between OSS and ALSA: it
 is ABI-compatible with libasound (actually using alsa's headers), and
 just makes OSS ioctls.

 The idea would be to have libsalsa-dev provide libasound2-devĀ /
 libasound-dev, built only on archs that do not have the latter, to make
 sure buildds & co don't accidentally take it. libsalsa-asound2 just
 provides a libasound.so.2 symlink to libsalsa.so and can thus provide
 libasound2. That should permit to avoid having to fix all packages'
 build-deps for non-linux archs.
