Yes... I'm trying to get Pd to work with Alsa for the upcoming release. There's one difficulty I'm having: if you compile Pd with Alsa, it won't run on machines that doesn't have Alsa installed, because it will need the shared library! Does anyone know how one can distribute programs that can select Alsa at run time but can still start up when there's no Alsa library???
thanks Miller
It should be possible to link alsa statically, ... the other solution would be to provide an alsa stub, which is probably a little bit more work
Linking one part statically and the other parts dynamically is a little bit of linker flags hassle. But no guaranties ..
