I created a new package called libopenal0a-soft, with the latest version of OpenAL. I renamed the old package libopenal0a to libopenal0a-creative, and created a metapackage libopenal0a which depends on either one of them. Thus, no Ubuntu packages have to be recompiled.
Anybody cares to test my version of the solution?

The debs can be downloaded from http:// cristiklein. c7obs.net/ public/ kiwi/openal/. There is also a textfile http:// cristiklein. c7obs.net/ public/ kiwi/openal/ test-openal. txt, which shows how to download / install / test (using supertux) both versions (creative and soft). You should notice that the first invocation of supertux has croppy sound, while the second one does not.
Thanks.
