Hi.
To ease our work on porting GNOME3, it would really help to subpackage
audio/libcanberra. We need the latest version to be able to move on.
My idea is to do the following:
-main - main library
-gtk - libcanberra-gtk library and gtk2 modules (I choose -gtk and not
-gtk2 to follow the libname), gconf
-gtk3 - libcanberra-gtk3 library and gtk3 modules, gsettings
The only drawback is that canberra-gtk-play would be contained in the
-gtk3 subpackage and configuration would be in dconf which gnome-session
2 cannot deal with.
If you don't care about login/logout sounds than it would change nothing
for you.
Don't forget that at one point we will need to be able to run gtk+2
applications that link against libcanberra-gtk AND gtk+3 applications
that link against libcanberra-gtk3, so unless we want to force people to
move all gtk+2 applications to gtk3 in one go (which would be really
bad), then we will need this.
If you think this is not acceptable, please let me know as I intend to
move toward the subpackaging as soon as possible. Personnally, I think
loosing the login/logout sounds in GNOME2 is not such a regression...
Thanks.
