No. The only actual dependency is in libgnome/&ui, and the others solely depend on esd because libgnome/&ui do. The libgnome/&ui people are aware of the problem and may at some point be ported to GStreamer; the problem isn't so much the patching itself, because patches are available, but the amount on which we want to drop an unstable API of a huge library into the GNOME developer platform (*). Once ported, that will remove the esd dependency from the others, too. Ronald (*) that doesn't mean it won't be accepted; it just means it'll take some time. ;). -- Ronald S.
