[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 208356] Re: Problem with SDL_INIT_AUDIO

[Alroger Filho]

I was having this problem using Ubuntu 9.04 64bits with OSS4 (no ALSA,
no PulseAudio). I switched to openal instead of qf, and noticed that
warsow looks for libopenal.so.0, so I made a symlink in /usr/lib from
the libopenal.so.1 to libopenal.so.0 and warsow worked perfectly!
