Dopo undici anni finisce ufficialmente un’era, quella di Esound in GNOME.

Esound è il sound server originariamente creato per il DE Enlightenment (”Wwwelcome to Enlightenment!” cit sexy voice), adesso del tutto rimpiazzato in GNOME da libcanberra e GStreamer/PulseAudio.

Chi ricorda il beep che si otteneva avviandolo da terminale? ^^

GNOME is now officially esound-free: all modules have been ported over
to libcanberra for event sounds or GStreamer/PulseAudio for everything else. It’s time to celebrate!


It’s an end of an era. The oldest version of esound in GNOME CVS is 0.2.1, commited on May 11th 1998. It has been shipped with every GNOME release since 1.0 back in 1999. (esound outside of GNOME dates even further back, probably some time in the year 1997 or so). After almost 11 years in GNOME it’s all over now. Oh, those were the good times.
