Comment:

 Replying to [comment:3 ari]:
 > Presumably pidgin should move to libcanberra when/if it gets Win32
 support because using gstreamer is currently overkill for the purposes of
 playing event sounds, not just because libcanberra is a "blessed GNOME
 dependency".. I'm assuming everybody agrees that gstreamer is not really
 appropriate for this use case.

 [[BR]]
 Gstreamer is a necessity for us for other features that are in
 development.  Direct use of gstreamer isn't going away any time soon.

 I still don't see a compelling reason to use libcanberra.
