Hey, thanks for the suggestion. I might be missing something and there definitely seems room for improvements, but there is usually no situation where having both packages makes sense. For Bluetooth audio, you need Bluetooth support for your system's sound server and that is typically either PulseAudio or PipeWire, definitely not both.

With the alternatives in place, if the sound server in use already has Bluetooth support installed, nothing happens when the recommendations get checked. If it does not, none of the packages should be installed already and from my understanding pulseaudio-module-bluetooth will be chosen simply because it's first in the list. This is unfortunate for PipeWire users, but pulseaudio still seems more like a default throughout installations to me, so the opposite does not make sense either. Recommending both would just mean that users will get Bluetooth support installed for a sound server that they do not have / use, even if theirs is already good. At least the pulseaudio module even pulls in the whole sound server.
