Portroach tells me that a newer version of aumix is available, which has reminded me that I'd really prefer to remove the port. aumix uses libossaudio to provide mixer controls. It is tied intimately to the OSS mixer model (a small number of all-alike numerical controls, range 0-100, no ratcheting); attempting to support OpenBSD's native mixer controls would require a complete rewrite that nobody has volunteered for in ten-plus years, and its usefulness through the ossaudio emulation layer approaches zero.
I have a vague memory that I wanted to remove it in the past and there was some resistance, but please, can we just kill it? There are some other candidates that should be put to sleep likewise (xmix and xmmix immediately pop out), but aumix is one I'm listed as maintainer of. :-> -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber [email protected]
