I re-orphaned portaudio. I see that it is patched to work with
pulseaudio, which, I think, must be banned from the surface of Earth.
I am not planning to maintain a package with such a patch.

Anyone who is interested can take it over.

annoyed if someone takes over an orphaned package and does not report
this on the mailing list. For everyone's information.
