emerge freealut failes with error: alutInit.c:150: error: wrong type

I was able to build the freealut sources that gentoo wanted to download
manually, have you tried to sync?

Sorry for being stupid here but I don't know what else to add to this 
problem. The bad file is alutInit.c

the bad line is:

          if (!alcCloseDevice (device))


I couldn't find where the function is but obviously it returns the wrong 
data type.

I was advised to emerge sync. Did that recently (about 2-3 weeks) but 
I'll do it again to be on the safe side.

What I don't understand is how it can work for me and not for you.  The
changelog doesn't report anything since january.  I tried
freealut-1.0.1.tar.gz from distfiles.gentoo.org.

'recently' is in the last 24h.

Every sync  'older' than 7 days is from the stone ago...

which is clearly nonsense as "alcCloseDevice" is prototyped "void 
alcCloseDevice( ALCdevice * deviceHandle)"

http://www.openal.org/oalspecs-specs/alc.html#AEN1184

The right way to check for an error would be to use alcGetError.
I'd say this is a bug upstream.

Michael

Too short.  Email.  Not enough.  Info.
