In bug 946037 we determined that the lack of the |pulseaudio| executable on Linux build machines was causing Valgrind to give some false positive leak reports.

Can the |pulseaudio| package be installed?  Thanks!

(BTW, this is very similar to bug 943713.  If this becomes a recurring pattern -- Valgrind failures due to missing executables -- I'll investigate a deeper fix, such as running Valgrind on the test machines instead of the build machines.)

Actually, kinetik identified that the invocation of pulseaudio is a bad for start-up performance, and so he is going to back out the patch from bug 944707.

So the lack of packages on the build machines ended up being helpful in this instance! :)
