tldr; Will move OSSv4 to the AUR in one week if no one can fix it or
wants to maintain it.
I had started maintaining OSS because I had one computer that
absolutely required it. That computer has since completely broken.
Also since then, our OSS package started to bit-rot around the 3.10
kernel release.
The 3.10 patches floating around don't seem to help. The pre-compiled
oss-nonfree package in the AUR does work. I'm guessing there is some
compile flag that I am missing. It seems odd that a generic binary
works for us when the package produced by our toolchain does not.
I am at a loss as to how to make OSS work. I'd like to see it stay in
the repositories because options and choices are good. But only if
they actually function.
