Description Christian Persch 2009-11-30 10:41:30 UTC 
We should deprecate gnome-sound and update the docs to recomment using libcanberra[-gtk] instead.
Comment 1 Kjartan Maraas 2009-11-30 12:13:23 UTC 
Yes indeed. And disable esd by default in libgnome maybe? This would mitigate the fact that libaudiofile has unfixed security fixes and no active upstream.
Comment 2 Christian Persch 2009-11-30 13:19:40 UTC 
Deprecated on master.

I think we can just #undef HAVE_ESD always, but probably should continue to _link_ to esound/libaudiofile just for the ABI compat.
Comment 3 Christian Persch 2009-11-30 14:39:51 UTC 
I posted a patch for that in the other bug.
