Description Mirek Kratochvil 2006-02-19 23:38:31 UTC

alut-20051024  is now built from package with openal-20051024. This distfile has several typo-like bugs (for example, check alut/src/alutInit.c, function 
alutInitWithoutContext, first if), so should be replaced - possibly with this:

http://openal.org/openal_webstf/downloads/freealut-1.0.1.tar.gz

..as a result of this bug, gentoo now still hasn't working and up-to-date alut 
implementation.

I think the best solution is to finally add media-libs/openal-1.0.1 and media-libs/alut-1.0.1 with corresponding debugged sources from www.openal.org.
 
New ebuilds should remain masked - see bug #123403

this is the same problem (bug #94940):
> There is no sound coming out of openal games
> like flightgear or x-plane. After many tries, 
> I decided to make a cvs build of openal and it worked.
