Hi,

pulseaudio builds a module for interfacing with lirc, and for this 
build-depends on lirc. At the same time pulseaudio is also in the key 
package set, thus pulling in lirc into the key package set too.

Unfortunately lirc seems mostly unmaintained. It also depends on 
libusb, which we want to get rid of.

Given the popcon data for pulseaudio-module-lirc, I'm wondering if 
pulseaudio could consider dropping pulseaudio-module-lirc.

There may be other reasons keeping lirc in the key package set, but 
it's a bit hard to tell with the infrastructure we have.

Best,
Chris
