Hi,
similarly to what Bert Freudenberg suggested to find the OpenGL library
on Linux, the following finds the normal (non -dev) OpenAL library:
OpenALUnix>>openALLibraryName
^ SmalltalkImage current osVersion = 'linux'
ifTrue: ['libopenal.so.0']
ifFalse: ['openal']
If this is used, then there is no need to override OpenAL>>initialize
in OpenALUnix.
