Question fatdog64 why does it not include pulseaudio?


This is a must-have package, I don’t understand the policies... it’s needed for most appimage and browser. Fortunately, everything is so easy to set up and do on fatdog, that I installed it and started the service.

On another topic, SeaMonkey was very good while running on gtk2, I don’t think it is useful today on Linux.

Maybe because some users might wish to use pipewire instead of pulseaudio instead. Gonna have to ask the developer to know for sure.

Browsers on puppy are a dime a dozen.

This is a remark by one of the Fatdog developers

Quote:
And PulseAudio, while being the most popular soundserver in this decade (due to it being pushed down the throat on many distributions, just like systemd is), isn't exactly the most stable or the easiest one to configure. If you need proof, just use your favourite search engine and see how many questions there are about "PulseAudio not working" ...
