Unable to locate package openal-soft


I'm trying to install openal-soft on Ubuntu Focal, but without luck.

This is the package I would like to install:

https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/focal/openal-soft

What I tried:

sudo apt update
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt install openal-soft

Am I missing something?


Solution

  • The package openal-soft does not exist.

    If you want to install the OpenAL SDK, use this command:

    sudo apt-get install libopenal-dev
    

    If you only need the lib on your system, run:

    sudo apt install libopenal1
    

    You also don't need to add the universe repository because it is enabled by default.
