Hi,

Since ~two years back Ubuntu ships alsa-info.sh on new installations, in 
order to have bug reports that are upstream compatible.

However, alsa-info.sh seems to be a part of the alsa-driver git tree, 
and the alsa-driver package is not released anymore, since we think that 
is a part of the Linux kernel. As a result, alsa-info.sh is no longer 
part of an upstream tarball that we can package in the usual way.

So maybe we should move alsa-info somewhere else, e g alsa-utils? What 
do you think?
