Description of problem: this happened to me too: =============== Scot L.

Because the debugging info has been stripped. Is there a reason this library was built this way? $ yum install openal-debuginfo ===================================== Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.0.9-0.4.2 I tried to install openal-debuginfo as above but my system does not show a 0.0.9-0.4.2, just the previous version: openal-debuginfo.i386 0.0.8-1.2.fc4.rf installed. My previous openal installation worked with the same X-Plane software that now fails. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd to X-Plane\ 8.20 subdirectory 2. ./X-Plane-athlon-xp 3. result is: [root@flight X-Plane 8.20]# ./X-Plane-athlon-xp ./X-Plane-athlon-xp: symbol lookup error: ./X-Plane-athlon-xp: undefined symbol: alutInit [root@flight X-Plane 8.20]# Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
