Bug#882142: fixed in pulseaudio 11.1-3

[julien forest]

I can not understand how such a patch can solve the problem ! 

The add of libpam-systemd as a recommendation does not solve anything
for anyone not installing recommendations.

Furthermore, for those who do not want (can not) use systemd (or
at least libpam-systemd),this not solve anything.

Maybe the solution is to create a dependency to one of two subpackages
(libpulse0-libpam and libpulse0-nolibpam for example). The first one
should add the file /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf
as now while the second-one should add the following version of the
same file: 
"# On linux systems, disable autospawn by default
# If you are not using systemd, comment out this line
autospawn=yes
". 

Then libpulse0-libpam should depend on libpam-systemd while
libpul$se0-nolibpam conflicts with it. 

Best regards, 

Julien
