Bug ID: 37555
Summary: Request for enhancement: add alsa-lib-devel message
when ./configure can't find Pulse Audio
Product: Wine
Version: 1.7.30
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown

Hi Guys,
Would you consider the following enhancement:
When running "./configure" on Wine-1.7.30, and "./configure" can not find the
Audio Driver (as in it can't find the Pulse Audio driver), you get the
following frustrating/bogus/nonsensical error message:
"configure: WARNING: No sound system was found.
Windows applications will be silent."
This is an especially confusing message to see, whilst you listen to music on
VLC.
When this error appears, would mind looking to see if alsa-lib-devel.i686 is
installed? And if not, asking for it or making come comment about it?
If you don't mind, I would like you to consider rewriting the error message
too:
"configure: WARNING: No sound system was found.
If you are using Pulse Audio, please install the
alsa-lib-devel package."
Thank you for your consideration.
-T
