[RQt-devel] Phonon header

Mon May 3 20:16:05 CEST 2010

I'm thinking of dropping support for Phonon, since the Qt version seems to
be bitrotting, and QtMultimedia will make it largely redundant with the 4.7
release. Something is weird with cmake's configuration for QtMultimedia, but
anyway, consider Phonon dropped.
