Assign to me to work on. The alsa version requirement would then be bumped to 1.0.24 (released 2011-01-31) from the current 1.0.19. I strongly oppose that dependency for pulse 1.0, even more so because we gain nothing substantial from not allowing older versions. I agree on the alsa front. As you said on IRC, this is probably a problem for some folks that want to use 1.0, e.g. when installing on little embedded devices etc. No reason to really make things awkward. We'll kill off support for older alsa in six months or a year or so unless some other major change comes along to force it sooner. I'm still in favour of generally increasing requirements to keep people up-to-date tho' :) commit 69fe26206f9ce204db58c0cedd87a6063810c179 Author: Colin Guthrie <colin@mageia.org> Date: Wed Sep 7 20:19:44 2011 +0100 bluetooth: Bump DBus version to 1.3.0 and drop conditional code. We used to support older DBus versions but 1.3.0 is two years old now and by requiring it we cut down of deviated code paths at runtime and thus have less support issues. fdo#40635 |
