It's not really a stand-off; we (LR, the company that makes X-Plane) have patched X-Plane to dynamically detect either libopenal.so.0 or 1 so that we will run without user mods on any distribution (including older distros that haven't made this change).
It is only the older LR products that are no longer patched or modified that require sim-linking. We don't feel great about this, but we also can't crack open every legacy version of X-Plane any time a new distribution changes a binary API. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273558 Title: /usr/lib/libopenal.so.0 missing from Intrepid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openal-soft/+bug/273558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
