Debian's vcs is on [salsa](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/pasystray). + +## Alternatives +Use native Devuan package, that has broken, and also unwanted, features. + +For alsa based systems, use package `volumeicon-alsa`. + +## Reason for being in stackrpms +I wanted small modifications to this application. In 2024 I started [using pulseaudio](https://bgstack15.ddns.net/blog/posts/2024/03/18/change-default-audio-input-on-devuan-with-pulseaudio/) and the alsa-based volumeicon did not control pulseaudio-only sinks, like the "combined sink." + +## Dependencies +Read the dpkg recipe. + +## References +All links in this document. + +## Differences from upstream. +The application code itself is unchanged. My dpkg recipe varies from upstream dpkg slightly, and includes very small patches to the app code, to accomplish the following: + +* Disable using libayatana-appindicator3-1 and libavahi garbage. The fallback of Gtk3 StatusIcon works better. +* Use pulsemixer instead of pavucontrol. |
