Dear all,
Today I did a sudo zypper dup. I saw:

The following NEW package is going to be installed: esound-daemon
The following packages are going to be upgraded:
As I wondered why esound-daemon was installed I've checked out what package needs this package:
rpm -q --whatrequires esound-daemon no package requires esound-daemon
The 'problem' is multilayered: libesd0 (the esound library) recommends the esound-daemon (which makes sense... the lib does not forcibly require the daemon, but surely benefits from it). libesd0 is required by SDL, some wx framework libs and some other things. Pulseaudio has a submodule, called pulseaudio-compat-esound; which obsoletes and provides esound-daemon (so it should have preference), BUT: it ONLY obsoletes esound-daemon < 0.2.41 and provides esound-daemon = 0.2.41; Considering that esound-daemon in openSUSE Factory (and older) has been at version 0.2.41 since somewhen in 2009, this obsoletes is a NOP in any case.
