Bug#656967: libao4: undefined symbol: ao_is_big_endian in /usr/lib/ao/plugins-4/libalsa.so

[Philipp Hagemeister]

Package: libao4
Version: 1.1.0-1+b1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

In contrast to libesd.so and other plugins /usr/lib/ao/plugins-4/libalsa.so
uses the ao_is_big_endian symbol without specifying where it is from.

To reproduce, type:

    $ ldd -r /usr/lib/ao/plugins-4/libalsa.so > /dev/null
    undefined symbol: ao_is_big_endian      (/usr/lib/ao/plugins-4/libalsa.so)

As a workaround, copy the definition and implementation of ao_is_big_endian
into ao_alsa.c and recompile libao.
