> 1. Perhaps, this feature is over. Could you tell me your solution?

Don't enable it and remove all references to it from the spec file. The
capabilities patch was used to allow a non-root process to change the scheduling
policy to SCHED_FIFO and to lock pages in memory using mlock/mlockall. This is
now possible using recent kernels(~2.6.12+) and pam(FC5 and devel) by setting
the appropriate resource limits in the pam config file /usr/security/limits.conf
but I think that is something that should be done explicitly by the
user(appropriate documentation would be needed).

Sorry, I can't give you a definitive answer about that. You might want to check
if the FHS says anything but I don't think it is an issue.

I was only wondering because AFAIK the portaudio and oss plugins both depend on
alsa being in a working state anyway but it really doesn't matter.

In response to the idea of an Audio SIG, I am definately interested. I noticed
this page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Multimedia has yet to be
created...
