- Binary package hint: libopenal-dev
+ I wish to get openal-soft into main
- Hi
- I wish to get libopenal-dev into main,this is due to the following reasons
- * We will be packaging gluon for kdegames ( already in main ) which has a
build dep on libopenal-dev,thus libopenal-dev has a indirect dep on kdegames
- * The package meets all the requirements listed at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements
+ It is needed by kdegames to get sound in games like kgoldrunner
- Description: Software implementation of the OpenAL API (development files)
- OpenAL, the Open Audio Library, is a joint effort to create an open,
- vendor-neutral, cross-platform API for interactive, primarily spatialized
- audio. OpenAL's primary audience are application developers and desktop
- users that rely on portable standards like OpenGL, for games and other
- multimedia applications.
- .
- This library is meant as a compatible update/replacement to the OpenAL Sample
- Implementation (the SI). The SI has been unmaintained for quite a while, and
- would require a lot of work to clean up. This is a fork the old Windows
version
- to attempt an accelerated ALSA version of an OpenAL implementation.
- .
- OpenAL Soft supports mono, stereo, 4-channel, 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 output, as
- opposed to the SI's 4-channel max (though it did have some provisions for 6
- channel, this was not 5.1, and was seemingly a "late" addition). OpenAL Soft
- does not support the Vorbis and MP3 extensions, however those were considered
- deprecated even in the SI. It does, though, support some of the newer
- extensions like AL_EXT_FLOAT32 and AL_EXT_MCFORMATS for multi-channel and
- floating-point formats, as well as ALC_EXT_EFX for environmental audio
effects,
- and others.
+ * The package meets all the requirements listed at
