Another nonsense.

Waiting for the next lie.
I would suggest that it is inappropriate to use such language during debate.
As a courtesy to other members of the forum, and to indicate that I, for one, am interested in resolving this with the minimum of name-calling:
An installation of Debian "Stretch" (oldstable) without a GUI but with enough sound support (ALSA/OSS) to support Qemu instances does have aplay.
An installation of Debian "Buster" (stable) with both GUI and sound support sufficient for Qemu does have aplay.
An installation of Debian "Stretch" sufficient to run a wiki server does not have aplay. In the interest of full and fair disclosure, this is running in a VM but was installed from a standard CD.
An installation of Debian "Stretch" sufficient to run Lazarus over SSH (and regularly used for that) does not have aplay. Again for the sake of fairness, that one is running in a Docker container and was largely installed manually, it does not have KDE etc.
Now I log this stuff fairly thoroughly, but can't conclusively say at what point during installation aplay (etc.) is added. My suspicion would be it is as part of a desktop environment, which in my case is usually KDE.
But you do not need a desktop environment to use Lazarus or run Lazarus-built programs, since they can be mapped over ssh (or potentially via VNC etc.) in which case blithely beeping the server would be unhelpful- as I previously noted.
@Winni: So I'd very much appreciate a bit less of the name-calling, particularly when it turns out that you're not entirely in command of the facts.
