Looks like scorched3d needs to depend on ~openal-0.0.8, or be patched to work with the new version.
scorched3d seems to ship with its own copies of openal-config among its sources. The shipped one seems to work well in finding both openal 0.0.8 and 1.5.304 on amd64 (well, how complicated can it be to print out "-lopenal"? ;) ). I'll attach a slightly changed ebuild below.
Created attachment 171000 [details] updated ebuild which uses the openal-config shipped within scorched3d sources Updated ebuild configured to use one of the openal-config scripts shipped among scorched3d's own sources. Worked on an amd64 box, tried with both both openal 0.0.8 and 1.5.304.
ok:] now it works thank you very much:]
We close them on this end.

If comment #6 refers to the suggested fixed ebuild then I cannot get the same linking problem to appear, not on x86 and not on amd64. Before anyone comments on the arch: no, this is not x86-specific like currently marked. I hit the same on amd64 and thought I figured out a fix. Also, I'd bet on the script file being gone from >=openal-1.5.304 on ppc/ppc64 as well. :) Another way to fix this crossed my mind. Add pkgconfig to dependencies and use it. I think it looked like possibly a drop-in replacement for the openal-script, so maybe a couple-line patch to the autotools configuration files could do it with pkg-config. I'll try to have time to look into it later this week.
The ebuild is fine, call mine a stupid user error... Thanks for the ebuild :) Sorry for the confusion.
I humbly suggest that the updated ebuild is immediately uploaded into the Portage tree. media-libs/openal-1.5.304 just hit stable on x86 and, since it changes the library ABI, it triggers the recompilation of scorched3d, making the build of this game fail.
Fixed, thanks.
