Description Mirek Kratochvil 2006-02-19 09:30:54 UTC

OpenAL version 1.1 (=media-libs/openal-20051024) is widely and safely used today.
In portage, this one is still hard masked, but I don't see any reason why, it is
backwards-compatible and well tested. Looks like someone just forgot to unmask:

=media-libs/openal-20051024
=media-libs/alut-20051024

If I'm wrong (incompatibility with something or so..), please tell me why.

# Tony Vroon <chainsaw@gentoo.org> (29 Oct 2005)
# This version of openal uses an external version of alut, as it is no longer
# bundled, bringing Linux more in line with other operating systems.  What this
# means is that this version of openal and alut need to remain masked until all
# packages that use alut are fixed for the split libraries.
