OK. I know that there are a few packages that do not work with these versions of openal/freealut. I am working on those. However, since this version of openal isn't considered the "best version" by portage, it won't break anyone's machines. Basically, I need these packages to be stabilized because I am working to remove the old CVS snapshots from the tree once I've resolved all of the issues that are tracked on bug #132826 for these packages. Other than pyopenal, all of these packages are games packages, so they already will be supported by me. If you need something to test these versions against, you can try games-strategy/warzone2100, which uses the oh-so-ugly new *DEPEND structure necessary to properly support these packages. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

i've now tested openal-0.0.8 with games-sports/torcs-1.2.4-r1 and didn't exeperience any problems.
maybe i was a bit too enthusiasic about openal-0.0.8 and torcs-1.2.4-r1: after i decided to play the game another time i got (during a race): Randr version: 1.1 Visual Properties Report ------------------------ z-buffer depth: 24 (good) multisampling : available alpha bits : available WARNING: ssgLoadTexture: Cannot determine file type for './(null)' GfParmCheckHandle: parameter "Rear Right Suspension/packers" out of bounds: min:0 max:0.01 val: 0.02 in ("Tanhoj" - "drivers/tanhoj/tracksdata/car_g-track-3.xml") GfParmCheckHandle: parameter "Rear Left Suspension/packers" out of bounds: min:0 max:0.01 val:0 .02 in ("Tanhoj" - "drivers/tanhoj/tracksdata/car_g-track-3.xml") OpenAL backend info: Vendor: OpenAL Community Renderer: Software Version: 1.1 Available sources: 1024 or more Available buffers: 1024 or more Dynamic Sources: requested: 1003, created: 1003 #static sources: 21 #dyn sources : 1003 ^[[C/usr/games/bin/torcs: line 52: 24752 Segmentation fault $LIBDIR/torcs-bin -l $LOCAL_CO NF -L $LIBDIR -D $DATADIR $* I don't know if this bug is openal related. As /usr/games/bin/torcs is a shell script and /usr/games/lib/torcs/torcs-bin doesn't work when started directly, i'm not sure how to get more info about the crash with gdb (maybe modify the script ?). As soon as i found out how to get more information with gdb i'll post a bt; suggestions are wellcome :-)
Stable on SPARC
Had the wrong bug in mind when I removed SPARC. Enjoy the extra noise :)
x86 done, thanks for testing Matthias
Addming bsd as I have keyworded false newer openal right now for quake3 :P going to test 0.0.8 now.
Hmm openal-0.0.8 requires a patch for the BSD backend (that I have) and a fix for threading that I don't have yet :|
Marked ppc stable.

amd64 done.
It's the sound of the SPARC keyword dropping you like a ton of bricks!
Alpha and IA64 still need to stable openal-0.0.8 and HPPA/IA64 will want to keyword freealut. They will probably also want to stabilize them if they want all of their packages to work, since freealut supplies some functionality that was in the older CVS snapshots of openal.
ia64 done
alpha stable.
Marking this one as FIXED. HPPA, feel free to mark this package stable at any time.
