Xfce pulsaudio plugin dependency

Hi,

I have succesfully removed pulsaudio from my system and now use QasMixer to control the input/output.
I also wanted to remove the pulsaudio xfce plugin. But if I do that it removes Xfce as well. Is it possible to remove the dependency from the xfce4-pulsaudio-plugin package?

Btw Devuan runs very nice and snappy on my old Thinkpad, good work Devuan devs!

You probably encountered the so-called metapackage problem, explanation here:
