Hum…  It recalls me vaguely something…  I guess I tuned my poudriere
configuration and forgot about it completely for years.

Indeed, `pkg install papref` should either fail hard or succeed and then
papref should be usable.

I guess it's up to desktop@ to choose if changing the default for
GSETTINGS in audio/pulseaudio is okay or not.  I guess that at some
point in the future, when we get subpackages, we will be able to have
audio/pulseaudio build a package with the bits needed by audio/papref
and then the situation will be simpler.

If in the meantime we cannot do better than using a warning in
pkg-message, then I have no objection for it.

Thanks!
