Re: To permanently block installation of Pulseaudio.
Hi, I'm trying to block any re-installation of accessibility (brail, screen readers and speech recognition...) packages, as well as printing, scanning and mail.
I will try the example above.

Re: To permanently block installation of Pulseaudio.
so far so good with the apt settings.
Funny thing, although I have got rid of most pulse-audio packages (I still have libpulse... and pipewire-pulse...)
occasionally a new folder is made in /home/glenn/ "pulse". It is empty, but I wonder how it is put there.
still a work in progress, pulse is like a virus, hard to pin down and eradicate.

Re: To permanently block installation of Pulseaudio.
Probably a system service that didn't get the memo when you removed it. Is there a way to examine the 'script' in a .deb file and see all the actions taken? That might provide a clue to a setting somewhere that was not completely removed.

Re: To permanently block installation of Pulseaudio.
Thank you for the tip.
I do know that I can inspect the scripts from a .deb package by unpacking it like a zip file, and then I can read the install scripts.
A bit of investigation involved, but it may be worth it.
Just recently I got another folder, called dconf as well. lol.
The adventure/journey continues. :-)
