Forwarded: https://github.com/kcat/openal-soft/issues/1165
openal-soft fails to build from source if libsdl3-dev happens to be
installed (see upstream issue report for a full reproducer). I'm reporting
this as low-severity, since official buildds work in a minimal environment.
The attached patches fix the build in my environment (a Debian testing
derivative that has libsdl3-dev preinstalled, namely a possible future
branch of the Steam Runtime).
Thanks,
smcv

Subject: [PATCH] d/patches: Add patch from upstream to fix FTBFS in a
non-minimal environment
Disabling the examples didn't disable all of the checks for their
dependencies, and the check for ffmpeg wasn't quite right. Removing
the automagic dependency altogether seems better than fixing the check,
since it also makes the package's build more deterministic.
