Availability
============
Built for all supported architectures. In sync with Debian.

Rationale
=========
gsound is a minimal GNOME library to make working with libcanberra easier.

gnome-control-center 3.31.90 has a new simplified sound panel which now uses gsound. The Ubuntu Desktop Team wants gnome-control-center 3.32 for Ubuntu 19.04.

Other GNOME stuff in main might use gsound in the future but I don't see any definite plans for it.

Security
========
No known security issues
