Can we just patch alsaconf to issue a warning like "alsaconf is unmaintained, incompatible with other configuration tools, and fattening. Use at your own risk." I count myself among the users who find alsaconf useful. I'd feel differently if we had problems building it (it's a bash script) or if its mere presence on the system were likely to cause problems, but it's only going to be run by people who know to look for it in the first place, so I'd like to reiterate my opinion that it should be included until its functionality has been replaced.
