Bug Description
<coling> I'd still much prefer the zeroconf-discover stuff (and roap-discover) was removed from your default.pa file diwic
<coling> It takes choice away from users in a multi-user sysytem.
<coling> UserA and UserB both have to have tunnels even if user B doesn't want them :(
<coling> paprefs means this is a per-user choice.
<coling> If you wanted that functionality, I'd rather see you change the default gconf schema to ensure this is added by default and the user could still use untick the option should they want to.
<coling> It's just wrong to add it to the default.pa :(
<diwic> coling, hmm, I wonder what the right way to go about this is...the per-user argument is actually a good one
<coling> diwic, just change the gconf schema no? That way a new user will get the values by default? But they can still be turned off?
* coling will ultimately break this soon enough when we migrate away from paprefs, but that's a little while away.
<coling> I reckon it's mostly a documentation issue diwic. Just take the modules out of default.pa and then make sure users have a "Where have my audio tunnels gone?" entry in your release notes that explains things.
<coling> Any bugs, just close them and point to the release notes.
