when merging WINE with 32bit ABI i stumbled upon this issue. # required by app-emulation/wine-1.5.31[openal,abi_x86_32] # required by app-emulation/winetricks-954 # required by winetricks (argument) >=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-sdl-20130224 development Now here i am confused since openal has nothing to do with SDL, checked the code and the openal wrapper does not nothing with SDL. http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/openal32/openal.c So i am guessing here that emul-linux-x86-sdl compiles openal with 32 bit ABI? I would rather like to see it depend on media-libs/openal[abi_x86_32] but i would guess that would need some work but i dont know how that is done.
check openal in FireBurn repo, you can add and test it by typing "layman -a FireBurn"
(In reply to David "okias" Heidelberger from comment #1) > check openal in FireBurn repo, you can add and test it by typing "layman -a > FireBurn" instead of advertising overlays, why not posting an ebuild ? this type of comment sounds like there is no interest in getting this work merged in the main tree but rather attract people to use an overlay; moreover, the license.txt in fireburn overlay states gpl-3, so we even cannot legally grab stuff here to put them in the tree..
I agree with you Alexis. I already installed a couple of overlays just to get a few packages. I am not in the mood to install 100 overlays just to improve the main tree...
Anyone?
