micahgzequence: I'll take a look at those things02:19
zequencemicahg: Seems to me jack-rack is still in the wily repo. The branch I added just changes the maintainer info in the control file and the changelog.10:36
zequenceWell, git support coming to launchpad.13:18
micahgzequence: I thought you wanted it to stay15:57
micahgand Launchpad already has git support (I guess you mean for Ubuntu packages)15:58
zequencemicahg: According Langasek, we needed to upload jack-rack to "assert ownnership in the maintainer field". I read that as we needed to change the maintainer field in the control file16:09
zequencelaunchpad claims the support is beta, which is why I said it is coming16:09
micahgzequence: yes, that's correct16:10
micahgzequence: did you talk to the Debian multimedia team?16:10
zequencemicahg: No. I just read the bug reports and the reason why it was dropped. Because of upstream abandoning it. But, I'm ok with that for at least one cycle.16:11
zequenceSince, it seems to work, and it covers an area that nothing else seems to do16:11
zequencehttps://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740123 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=73402016:14
ubottuDebian bug 740123 in ftp.debian.org "RM: jack-rack -- ROM; dead upstream" [Normal,Open]16:14
ubottuDebian bug 734020 in jack-rack "FTBFS: error: unknown type name ‘GtkCallbackMarshal’" [Serious,Fixed]16:14
micahgyeah, I read those as well16:14
zequenceThere may be other alternatives in the future. Best option would be an application that supports all audio plugin types, if one were to be packaged for Debian.16:19
zequenceThere seems to be a couple of options.16:19
zequenceNone of them packaged yet, though.16:21
OvenWerkszequence: how important is it that more than one plugin be wrapped in a rack? I am thinking that there are "standalone" wrappers for ladspa, lv2 and dssi... all cli, but maybe a GUI that starts/stops the instance would be enough. So long as it can launch multiple wrappers at a time.16:30
OvenWerksThe wiring would be done in jack in any case.16:30
OvenWerksthjis would be future of course, not for 1510.16:31
zequenceOvenWerks: You thinking about coding some? From what I understand there are a couple of projects that allow this. But, nothing packaged in Debian.16:32
zequenceI think some people will really want to have that in any case. Supporting all plugin types makes things easier.16:32
OvenWerkszequence: I am thinking one gui for all, but spawns a simple gui just for each plugin.16:33
zequenceWell, why not? :)16:34
OvenWerkssome of the racks out there that take any plugin are reported to be less than stable.16:35
zequenceI have too little experience myself to be able to share an opinion.16:35
OvenWerksI will look into it. If I can make each of them work from CLI, then it is doable16:35
OvenWerksDSSI has one for sure (we use it now for Hexter), I think the others have at least a sample host.16:36
OvenWerksAnyway, I am out of here for a bit. Talk later16:37
zequenceOvenWerks: Later16:37
=== sinewav1 is now known as sinewav
OvenWerkszequence: jalv can replace zynjacku22:52
OvenWerksa gui script that uses lv2ls to list available plugs and lets the user choose one should work. Exiting the GUI kills the plug already. jalv.gtk worked for me.22:55
OvenWerksdssi_list_plugins and jack-dssi-host will do the same for dssi synths (we have all of four)22:58
OvenWerkszequence: there is already a lv2rack that only needs a desktop file to work.23:00
OvenWerksthe ladspa-sdk (we must ship as I don't recall installing) has some tools... but they are not impressive. List plugins coredumps after listing about four plugins. Applyplugin only does files not streams.23:15
OvenWerkslv2rack looks like jackrack updated to lv2 and may suffer simmilar bitrot.23:18
