- Added support for multi-line descriptions. Doesn't look nice
yet in Package Manager.

8 bits is 1 byte, and that isn't about to change any time soon.  (I hope!)

  * it no longer takes ssize, which served no purpose apart from
    scolding you if you got it wrong
  * changed the order of the three remaining required arguments
    to (format, channels, rate) to match the order in which they
    must be set
  * replaced the optional argument 'emulate' with 'strict': if strict
    true, and the audio device does not accept the requested sampling
    parameters, raise OSSAudioError
  * return a tuple (format, channels, rate) reflecting the sampling
    parameters that were actually set

Change the canonical name of ossaudiodev.error to
ossaudiodev.OSSAudioError (keep an alias for backwards compatibility).

Remove 'audio_types' list and 'n_audio_types' (no longer needed now that
setparameters() no longer has an 'ssize' argument to police).

in some locales.  This code simplifies the boundary algorithm to use
randint() which is what we wanted anyway.

Bump package version to 2.5.3.

Backport candidate for Python 2.2.3

or emptying __dict__, just as we do for classic classes.

Remove references to string based exceptions in the doc.

documented without embarassment).

'error' has been renamed to 'OSSAudioError'.

Minor wordsmithing.

Modified play_sound_file() to print the elapsed time taken to play the
test sample (to the nearest 0.1 sec).

Rename 'a' (the audio device) to 'dsp' everywhere.

Also fix a memory leak in Tkapp_Split.

This needs to be backported.  I'll leave it up to Barry whether this
is for 2.2.3 or 2.2.4.

  pimp_update if it exists. Upped the version number to indicate this.
  Fixes #731626.
- Added -V (print version) and -u (specify database URL) options when run

sleepycat has told him that since python is OSS and berkeleydb is
being distributed with python for the bsddb library all is fine.

Include a note about Sleepycat's BerkeleyDB license with regards to
distributing it within non-opensource applications and include a link

Document that 'r' is the default flag for the legacy bsddb btopen(),
hashopen(), and rnopen() functions.  This is apparently different than the
dbm libraries in other languages according to Bug #732951.  Changing
the default from 'r' to 'c' would break backwards compatibility with
legacy bsddb applications; documenting the default should suffice.
