Bug#648973: pulseaudio: start-pulseaudio-x11 requires pactl

[Patrice Duroux]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 2.0-6
Followup-For: Bug #648973

Dear Pulseaudio maintenance team,

As pulseaudio-module-x11 is already depending on pulseaudio-utils,
is it a good approach to solve this trouble by making the
/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 script sources other available scripts
in a like /etc/pulse/module.d/ or /usr/share/pulseaudio/... 
provided by pulseaudio-module-* so that pulseaudio-module-x11 package
provides a script doing the corresponding job?
Or perhaps is this completly obsoleted by an incoming pulseaudio
version like the one in experimental?
By the way, is there an easy way with PTS to know that a bug
is handled by an incoming package version and then to
not disturbe further maintainers by a post on this «old» bug?

Regards,
Patrice.
