Hi Moritz! The popcon is indeed low. But I also noted that libaudio2 it's a very small package (~175 kB uncompressed in amd64) and having the lib itself installed it's not a big problem as far as I understand (or does it triggers something else I'm not aware?) Yesterday I checked the possibility of adding it as a separate module but it seems there is no way to do that. So, at least there is the intention of removing nas from Debian [0] I don't think I'll remove the support. [0] For which I would wait for proper bugs+usertagging Kinds regards, Lisandro. -- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/
