Bugzilla Bug 133498

Filing a bug so I know which packages are broken.

Created an attachment (id=87104) [edit]
boson-0.11-openal.patch

Probably works, although I havn't got it to run yet.

Freealut isn't used.

boson-0.12 (bug 134701) works without a patch.

Does it also work with the "old" openal?

Works fine with openal-20050504-r2, yep.

PPC:  Please stabilize boson 0.12... I know that it hasn't been in the tree for
long, but it resolves this bug and also will allow me to clean up the
openal/freealut mess we're in now.

Looks like it's missing a DEPEND on dev-util/cmake

DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        >=dev-util/cmake-2.4.2"

strange.

Latest stable cmake is 2.0.6 but boson needs a newer version.

OK... I've added x86 back...

Lisa, Daniel... Can we mark cmake 2.4.2 stable?  There's no open bugs on it and
it's needed for boson now.

(From update of attachment 87104 [edit])
This patch is in the tree, unused.

rather it waited a week or two so it gets over 30 days in the tree. has a few
outstanding selftest failures
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131080#c4. has a couple of pages of 
Significant to Critical bugs on upstream too

Cool, thanks Daniel.

Alright, so instead, I'm going to add the openal patch to 0.11 and hope that
fixes the problem.

I've tested this locally and I have problems getting the game to actually play.
 Perhaps there's something that I don't know going on here.  I get the exact
same problem with the old openal and boson 0.11, though, so I don't think
that's the problem.

Anyway, please test boson 0.11-r1 now.  We'll have to revisit 0.12 at a later
date.

i've thrown a glance at boson-0.11-r1  USE="opengl -arts -debug -xinerama" on
x86; that means that i was able to play it for about 10 minutes without
experiencing a crash. 

I tried boson-0.12 and it compiled cleanly. I can start it and the menu comes
up. When I try to start a game it crashes though. I've filed a bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129245 about that. The relevant konsole
output seems to be:

native_blitbuffer: select error occured
boson: arch/linux/lin_dsp.c:567: native_blitbuffer: Assertion `0' failed.

but I do not seem to have a file called lin_dsp.c on my system nor is there
such a file in /usr/portage/distfiles/boson-all-0.12.tar.bz2.

I'm marking this one fixed since 0.11-r1 is stable on x86.
