Re: different test results

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

To do this right, I need to learn how to do three things.
1) remove pulseaudio from an existing archlinux system,
2) prevent pulseaudio from installing on pre-existing archlinux system 
in future,
3) find out how to install an archlinux system without pulseaudio and 
keep it off newly installed systems.
Any help along these lines will be greatfully received.
