Hi GG, Phylis, Sam and all Now that things as settled around, and now that I'm good with the website French translation, I'm taking back the packaging of Cin-GG for my audio-linux debian-based distribution (and maybe later, a potential inclusion into Debian mainstream, but... one step after another). I've been doing a build with the last cin_5.1.20190430 and it seems to be successful so far. Doing that, I found a bunch of LV2 plugins which are avoided Cin to be launched and then, which needs to be added to the LV2_blacklist.txt file (after I did that locally, Cin is launching fine). Those following lines are the culprits: file:///usr/lib/lv2/MonoEffect.ingen/MonoEffect.ttl file:///usr/lib/lv2/MonoInstrument.ingen/MonoInstrument.ttl file:///usr/lib/lv2/StereoEffect.ingen/StereoEffect.ttl file:///usr/lib/lv2/StereoInstrument.ingen/StereoInstrument.ttl http://example.org/raffo http://www.wodgod.com/newtonator/1.0 https://sami.boukortt.com/plugins/intersect#Intersect https://sami.boukortt.com/plugins/intersect#SymmetricDifference https://sami.boukortt.com/plugins/intersect#Upmix Also, please, find attached an improved version for the ./blds/debian/control file which contains those improvements/changes: - I added a bit of description (then it looks better with the packages managers) - I improved the Maintainer field (changed the name from "mailing list" to "Cinelerra-GG devs") - I moved the Standard-version and the Homepage fields downer (standard good practice for Debian packaging) - Build-depends : -- 1 item per line (standard good practice for Debian packaging even if it doesn't change anything computer-side, it is easier to human-read) -- alphabetically ordered (standard good practice for Debian packaging too, easier for human-reading) -- removing of duplicates : libxft-dev, libxinerama-dev, and libxv-dev -- adding libusb-1.0-0-dev (the compilation failed here without it) I've got a few questions about the debian/control file which I'd like to have your dev's point of view here (I left those as-is for now waiting for your answers in case I'm missing something): - Build-depends field: -- why is inkscape needed for building ? It sounds like a mistake at a first glance. -- why is e2fsprogs needed ? For information, it contains those binaries : https://packages.debian.org/stretch-backports/amd64/e2fsprogs/filelist -- same for linux-firmware, why is that needed for building ? It doesn't even look to be in the Debian repository anymore - The "Standards-Version" number is currently defined to "5.1.20190430". It is not supposed to be the program version number (which is defined in the debian/changelog file), but a number matching a Debian standard. If you're OK with that, I would set it up to 3.9.8 which is the standard for Debian Stretch (current stable - Debian 9) and which will work as well for the next stable (Buster - Debian 10). I hope that helps. Thanks for your continuous work on cin-gg ! Cheers, Olivier PS: last but not least, I've send it to the mailing list as I did a few months ago back in the cin-cv times, but feel free to let me know if you would better like me to use the Mantis bug-tracker or any other way to contribute. I'm planning to send you other improvements/contributions on a next step. -- Site web : https://librazik.tuxfamily.org/ Donation : https://liberapay.com/LibraZiK/ Diaspora : https://framasphere.org/people/8c184af0c9450134f6682a0000053625 Mastodon : https://mastodon.xyz/@LibraZiK
