OpenAL package for Ubuntu 12.04

[Yaio]

Ubuntu 12.04 32/64 bit, Panda3D 1.8.0 official.

I have the following code:

import direct.directbase.DirectStart
loader.loadSfx( 'fileName.wav' ).play()
run()

and I make a p3d file requiring openal i.e. packp3d -r openal ...

The p3d file does not work (it crashes without reporting anything) in Ubuntu 12.04 (but it works in previous releases). If the program is launched using the Python interpreter, it also works in Ubuntu 12.04 (so, the problem only appears with Panda3D's runtime in Ubuntu 12.04).

It looks like the problem is the file libvorbis.so.0 installed by the runtime: replacing it with another version implies no crash.

I up this issue.
I have the same problem with ubuntu 13.04, kubuntu 13.04 and lubuntu 13.04, all in 64 bits. In 32 bits, the runtime works.
It's working on 64Bits with the python interpreter.
The log report nothing, and stop after :

:ShowBase: Default graphics pipe is glxGraphicsPipe (OpenGL).
:display: Created output of type glxGraphicsWindow
:display: Unable to set window properties: !undecorated fixed_size
:ShowBase: Successfully opened window of type glxGraphicsWindow (OpenGL)
:pnmtext: Loaded font Perspective Sans Regular

I try to change libvorbis.so.0 in .panda3d/hosts/runtime.panda3d.org*******/panda3d with the /usr/lib/x86-64-linux/ version, but it seems that panda change the lib when I start the runtime. I check the size and I can see that the new lib is replace by the old one.

[Yaio (yaio79)]

Actually, the runtime overwrites the libraries into the runtime directory. Replacing the library worked for me since I was deploying a Panda3D application built by pdeploy (with the -s switch), and the runtime doesn't overwrite it.

I believe this issue is no longer relevant in 1.9, since the openal package no longer contains libvorbis.so.0.

If I recall correctly, it was caused by librt.so.1 being erroneously included and causing a conflict.

Please reopen this if I'm mistaken.
