I'll make a PKGBUILD soon so that it can be uploaded.

Here's what I was writing:

# Maintainer: Mario Ortiz Manero <...>
# Maintainer: (OJFord's info)
pkgname=pulseaudio-control
_pkgname=polybar-pulseaudio-control
pkgver=1.3
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A feature-full Polybar module to control PulseAudio"
arch=("any")
url="https://github.com/marioortizmanero/polybar-pulseaudio-control"
license=("custom:MIT")
depends=("pulseaudio")
source=("https://github.com/marioortizmanero/polybar-pulseaudio-control/archive/v$pkgver.tar.gz")
md5sums=('e6693e35cb023fd1c4a02dc4ddc6b765')

package() {
    cd "$_pkgname-$pkgver"
    install -Dm755 "polybar-pulseaudio" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/polybar_pulseaudio"
    install -Dm644 LICENSE "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE"
}

Yours seems more complete. Not sure if libpulse is an actual dependency, we only need pacmd and pactl, which are provided by the pulseaudio package. The MIT license is custom, so you might want to use custom:MIT. Also, you can just remove the optdepends and conflicts lines IMO. Do you want to add it yourself and add me as a co-maintainer then? I'll release v2.0 now.

I also wanted to use pulseaudio-control as the name as I'll very likely change it soon if I manage to support other status bars (see #36).

libpulse is probably a dependency of pulseaudio - I just did -Qo on pacmd/pactl and the latter was libpulse.

Didn't know about custom:, 👍 thanks.

Ack re name.

Happy to make those changes and add it (and you as co-maintainer) - but equally for you to, didn't mean to step on your toes, I just had this semi-ready from when I started previously, before I hit the 'ah but I can't configure it without editing the file post-install' issue.

[marioortizmanero]

Don't worry! I imagined you had something ready, I just wanted to give it a try :P

I reworded the description slightly to make it easy/smooth to generalise beyond polybar, but feel free to tweak that of course.

Great! Can you open a small PR with a link to the package in the README?
