Hi Andr?,

several months ago I started hacking an openal package myself but
never finished it. Here I will compare my package to your version.

What about having a choice option defaulting to, for example, alsa?

Please add

	http://kcat.strangesoft.net/openal.html

to Config.in. Openal also needs this

	depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS

	comment "openal needs a toolchain w/ threads"
		depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS

Did you test a static build? I have this in openal.mk:

ifeq ($(BR2_STATIC_LIBS),y)
OPENAL_CONF_OPTS += -DLIBTYPE=STATIC
endif
