You *can't* replace ALSA with pulseaudio, lower ALSA
API remains
Hi All,
My solution was a safe two step procedure:
i) restore sources from backup
ii) git pull to update the sources
The other solutions had more steps which could go wrong. In fact, I
tried two suggested procedures to recover the sources from the git
repository as suggested by Aitor. However, b

I've been lurking for a while, and I'm getting close to a decision
point. I have been using Debian for well over a decade, but Jessie
appears to be too unstable. The two machines I installed it on had
issues bad enough that I reverted to Wheezy (reformat/reinstall).
Thing is, I mainly deal in serv
Looking back the past, the precursor of systemd chaos was replacement of
ALSA with pulseaudio that caused headache to many innocent users from
Debian 6.0 to 7.0. I tried to use buggy pulseaudio for months but went
back to ALSA.
Systemd built-in Debian Jessie was a disaster.

No.
As pointed out, the "discussion" has distracted people from the task in hand.

It's poluting the depending packages, the repository, and apt
cache. And it can only be built from upstream systemd source, which
means it's imposed on you in some way, even if you don't want it.
