Bug 77977 – mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin: Missing runtime dependency (esound)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jürgen Hötzel 2005-01-14 06:59:16 UTC]

Thunderbird can't play sounds without esound installed, i found this out strace'ing the process:

open("/opt/thunderbird/libesd.so.0", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/lib/libesd.so.0", O_RDONLY)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/tls/libesd.so.0", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/libesd.so.0", O_RDONLY)  = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Verify, that esound isn't intalled
2. emerge mozilla-thunderbird-bin
3. In thunderbird, try to preview a mail notification Sound (Edit->Preferences)

Actual Results:  
Silence

Expected Results:  
Mail Notification

This is not required to run thunderbird, it is a dep to play sound.
