1. Upstream no longer supports NAS, Esound, Jack, I propose to remove
   the corresponding binary packages.

2. oss4-dev is now needed for building the contents of libwine-oss.
   Adding it is an easy fix.

   One could argue that for libwine-oss should be removed for linux-*
   architectures as well and only be kept for kfreebsd-*. While it is
   the default sound driver in the FreeBSD kernel, OSS4 is not part of
   the Linux kernel (though it is available as a DKMS module).

3. Support for GStreamer has been added upstream. What should be done
   about that?

Cheers,
-Hilko
