Description John Croisant 2004-03-13 14:20:20 UTC
games-fps/americas-army-200a lists media-sound/esound as a dependency. I have tested without esound, and it works fine (with sound effects, even).

I am using kernel 2.6.3 and ALSA, so it may be that esound is only needed in the absence of ALSA? Or, it may be that esound is not needed at all. I have been unable to find an official document which lists the requirements.

At the very least, the ebuild should respect the USE flag, 'esd', and not depend on esound unless it is present.

Actually, that was carried over from a previous version, in which the openal was dynamically linked to libesd, rather than statically linked.

Anyway, I fixed this in CVS, so it should not require esound anymore.
