HOWTO


# Ogg Vorbis

# Ogg Vorbis is a collection of libraries and tools including libao, libogg,
# libvorbis, and the vorbis-tools.  Slackware 9.0 and 9.1's 'oggutils' package
# includes libao 0.8.3, libogg 1.0, libvorbis 1.0, and vorbis-tools 1.0
# Slackware 10.0 and up include separate packages for each one.  See below for
# included versions.  At the bottom of this howto are python bindings and
# codecs.

# Before you begin with anything else, run this:
mkdir -p -m 0700 ~/installed/oggvorbis ~/src/oggvorbis
su -c "test -x /sbin/removepkg && /sbin/removepkg oggutils"


# libao 0.8.8
# ===========
# Slackware 10.0's 'libao' package includes version 0.8.4, 10.1's includes
# 0.8.5, 10.2's, 11.0's, and 12.0's include 0.8.6
