kgdir}" install rm -f ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/dcraw } Lensfun is a new dependency, not sure it is needed (http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/index.html). The last configure option simply didn't exist and I removed the sed line (assuming upstream know what they're doing). In my opinion the package name should be ufraw rather than gimp-ufraw since this package enables ufraw standalone, in batch-mode and as 'plug-in' for cinepaint and gimp. HTH Philipp

ion systemd or anything else he writes can't just be a neat program that some users find handy, it needs to be everywhere. Now I know what avahi and PA does, and I don't have a user for either, yet they are there. I don't have the slightest idea what CK and PK does, they don't have any tangible benefit for me, yet they are there. I'm not sure whether systemd will fall into the former or later category, but I'd be really surprised if it had any real benefit for me Yet I'm sure to have it on my machine within a year or so.

The piece you miss: PA depends on alsa, it builds on alsa, it can't replace it. At hardware-near levels there's still alsa at work. If you use alsa via PA, then you go alsa-PA-alsa. Btw., last time I checked it was not recommended to program using the PA API, so unless this changed, developers are still supposed to write their programs for alsa or whatever else. --Philipp
