Bug#611491: pulseaudio: Depends on consolekit, though it isn't needed

[Harald Braumann]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.21-3+b1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I don't have consolekit installed and pulseaudio runs without problems. 
Nevertheless, pulseaudio depends on consolekit. On my system, pulseaudio is
the only package that depends on consolekit. I had to make a dummy package 
using equivs just for this.

Please downgrade the dependency to a recommends. 

Cheers,
harry
