>Description:
x11/qt5-qtmultimedia has a hardcoded dependency on pulseaudio.
This is a bad choice on NetBSD, where at least starting with NetBSD 8.0 OSS
is a much saner sound and more lightweight sound interface.
The pkg should at least optionally support other choices and respect the
global "pulseaudio" option.

Over to maintainer.
State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: nia@NetBSD.org
State-Changed-When: Sun, 24 May 2020 09:53:54 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
It now respects this option, but there isn't much support for alternate backends.
I believe that's a separate option, and one that I could help with, but I'd need
help from someone more experienced with the Qt codebase and contributing to it.
Actually, I mean "problem", not "option", but edit-pr doesn't seem to be a very
good editor...
