alutLoadWAVFile instead of alutLoadWAV should be used - bäh! - needs to be patched.

thanks! thats a well described bug report. Thanks for your time. Maybe ill post a patch in the near future (actually, after my exams)

yea, thanx for the compliment - sorry that i0m not looking at this now (my diploma thesis takes lots of time atm). if you find something on the web (maybe the debian people have some patch?) or write one yourself, great....

we can also ask the community to search for a solution.

the problem is that the new function alutLoadWAVFile that replaces alutLoadWAV has a different syntax, that's why i cannot simply replace it.

Attached is an updated package build and patch (from gentoo) that fixes the package. Haven't over test but the games start with sound and I get get the plane to take-off...
