IcedTea-Sound 1.0.0 Released!

[Andrew Hughes]

We are pleased to announce the inaugural release of IcedTea-Sound.  At
present, IcedTea-Sound contains the PulseAudio provider which was
removed from IcedTea itself from 2.5.0 onwards. More providers may be
included in the future.

If you find an issue with the release, please report it to our bug
database (http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla) under the
IcedTea-Sound product and the appropriate component. Development
discussion takes place on the distro-pkg-dev at openjdk.java.net mailing
list (as with IcedTea) and patches are always welcome.

Full details of the release can be found below.

What's New?
===========
New in release 1.0.0 (2014-07-18):

* PR1741: Break PulseAudio provider out into IcedTea-Sound
* PR1840: Replace Makefile.am references to PULSE_JAVA with ICEDTEA_SOUND
* PR1842: Linker does not check that symbols can be resolved for libpulse-java.so
* PR1876: The following shared libraries lack a SONAME: /usr/lib64/libicedtea-sound.so

The tarballs can be downloaded from:

* http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.gz
* http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.xz

We provide both gzip and xz tarballs, so that those who are able to
make use of the smaller tarball produced by xz may do so.

The tarballs are accompanied by digital signatures available at:

* http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.gz.sig
* http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.xz.sig

* Andrew Hughes (all bug fixes, release management)

We would also like to thank the bug reporters and testers!

To get started:

$ tar xzf icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.gz

or:

$ tar x -I xz -f icedtea-sound-1.0.0.tar.xz

then:

$ mkdir its-build
$ cd its-build
$ ../icedtea-sound-1.0.0/configure --prefix=${install_location}
$ make
$ make install

where ${install_location} should be replaced by the prefix where you
wish to install IcedTea-Sound (default is /usr/local). Depending on
the prefix selected, the 'make install' step may need root privileges.

Full build requirements and instructions are available in the INSTALL file.

Happy hacking!
