Description Narada Sage 2003-05-04 14:29:16 UTC
Having emerged (upgraded to) version 0.9.3 of alsa-driver, alsa-lib, alsa-utils
and alsa-tools I got two or three warning messsages on bootup which did not
appear on dmesg.  Also, when I tried to open kdevelop it complained about not
being able to find the following file which was not at its specified location.

/usr/X11R6/lib/libaudio.so.2

So I made the following symlink.

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           30 May  4 18:49
/usr/X11R6/lib/libaudio.so.2 -> /usr/lib/libaudiofile.so.0.0.2

Having made the symlink kdevelop opened up as normal and boot warnings when
starting alsa no longer occured.  I'm not sure if I have symlinked the correct
file but it seems that there is some sort of modification required.  I'll leave
it in your capable hands.  Many thanks.
Comment 1 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-08-23 15:47:22 UTC
Reason - Outdated bug with outdated version of alsa with no activity for 
long.
