A better idea would be to get the official PKGBUILD by coping it from ABS and then to add ac_add_options --enable-alsa maybe behind ac_add_options --prefix=/usr since the prefix unlikely will change. >4. let the wrapper build and install your package > >5. let the wrapper run a regular "pacman" with $@ options > >IMO it's easier to use apulse-git and if you should use freedesktop.org >menus, to edit a desktop file to launch "apulse firefox" by a sript.
