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.

(*) that doesn't mean it won't be accepted; it just means it'll take
some time. ;).
