[Bug 26970] New: OSS sound system found but too old (OSSv4 needed), OSS won't be supported

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26970

           Summary: OSS sound system found but too old (OSSv4 needed), OSS
                    won't be supported
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.19
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: t.artem(a)mailcity.com


It's not really a bug but a question.

I'm running a very modern Linux distro, Fedora 14 with all updates installed
and Wine 1.3.19 now doesn't want to support OSS saying:

"configure: OSS sound system found but too old (OSSv4 needed), OSS won't be
supported."

I'm kinda disappointed, because OSSv4 is an external package, it's very
difficult to bundle it with Linux distros and it seems like you killing the
support for OSS for no obvious reasons other than impeding using the OSS
emulation layer in ALSA (which still works very well for many of us, users of
Wine).

Bugzilla is not for questions. Anyway, you should use ALSA.

How to fix this?

I am getting this error with linux mint 18 mate edition.

I had to install lots of development files and I am still missing some of them.

./configure shows

configure: OSS sound system found but too old (OSSv4 needed), OSS won't be
supported.
