A new version the libao packages is now available for download.

NEWS:
=====
This is a new upstream release, with upstream changes listed below. See
also the package documentation in /usr/share/doc/libao.

The new release includes a new versioned DLL package: libao4. The
old package, libao2, is now obsolete.

Documentation is now in the libao-common package, which will be
installed if any other package is installed. libao is left as a
transition package that will pull in all the other packages.

DESCRIPTION:
============
Libao is a cross-platform audio library that allows programs to output
audio using a simple API on a wide variety of platforms. It currently
supports:

    * Null output (handy for testing without a sound device)
    * WAV files
    * AU files
    * OSS (Open Sound System, used on Linux and FreeBSD)
    * ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture)
    * polypaudio (next generation GNOME sound server)
    * esd (EsounD or Enlightened Sound Daemon)
    * AIX
    * Sun/NetBSD/OpenBSD
    * IRIX
    * NAS (Network Audio Server)
