Buster missing libasound.so? #226

Closed shokuntsuki closed 3 years ago

shokuntsuki commented 3 years ago

I have pyalsaaudio and libasound2-dev installed. The code I am attempting to use has worked with previous installations of Raspbian.

As best I can tell, pyalsaaudio relies on /usr/lib/libasound.so being installed. libasound.so is present in Debian's distribution but not in Buster. Is there a reason for leaving it out of Buster? (see https://larsimmisch.github.io/pyalsaaudio/pyalsaaudio.html#alsa-and-python)

Everything looks okay from this end.

$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libasound.so
libasound2-dev:armhf: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libasound.so

Which matches the paths in Debian:

/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libasound.so | libasound2-dev [armhf]

This did not turn out to be my problem, thank you!
