I have several customizations in /etc/pulse/system.pa and the latest
upgrade of pulseaudio therefor prompted me what to do with it.

The new last lines of /etc/pulse/system.pa are as follows:
=================================================
### Allow including a system.pa.d directory, which if present, can be used
### for additional configuration snippets.
.nofail
.include /etc/pulse/system.pa.d
=================================================

That seems exactly what I want and will prevent future upgrade prompts.
Excellent :-) But the directory doesn't exist.
It does have a 'client.conf.d' and a 'default.pa.d' which I presume have
the same functionality. But the corresponding one for 'system.pa.d' is
missing and I think the package ought to create it.

Cheers,
  Diederik
