still gives the same error message ./el.x86.linux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

just tried to uninstall using Kpackage like last time and it's not in the list. How do uninstall it manually?/

right im gonna uninstall the rpm yet again and find the source and do it the easy (hard) way, and follow your instructions to the letter

this is what was returned when i entered the following command in Konsole rpm -ivh openal.rpm warning: openal.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 9b3c94f4 Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:openal ########################################### [100%] I assume that is all ok
