trebmuhhi guys16:11
trebmuhyou've got an issue with the ardour 5 package16:11
trebmuhthis very same issue : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=83448816:11
ubottuDebian bug 834488 in ardour,ardour-data "ardour-data and ardour: error when trying to install together" [Serious,Open]16:11
trebmuhhope that helps16:11
zequencetrebmuh: Thanks. Hopefully it is fixed in Debian soon, and soon as it is, we need to sync with them16:21
zequencetrebmuh: Did you report that bug?16:21
zequenceIf so, and you also use Ubuntu, could you please report it for Ubuntu as well?16:22
zequenceAh, damn. ardour5 is the package causing the build failure16:24
trebmuhno I'm not using ubuntu16:25
trebmuhzequence, that's just a matter of 2 lines changes in the debian/ardour.install file16:25
trebmuhie : you just have to replace:16:26
trebmuhdebian/tmp/usr/*16:26
trebmuhby:16:26
trebmuhdebian/tmp/usr/bin/ardour*16:26
trebmuhdebian/tmp/usr/lib/*16:26
trebmuhand you're good to go16:26
zequencetrebmuh: Thanks. I will have a look and see about fixing that today16:27
trebmuhthat's what I've been doing for LibraZiK16:27
trebmuhzequence, no worries, hope that helps16:27
zequenceI can change the code, but I can't upload in Debian.16:27
trebmuhzequence, if I can suggest something as rgareus said on #ardour : "grabbing debian/sid and *directly* publishing it sound like a recipe for disaster."16:28
trebmuhthat will be fixed in debian anytime soon, I'm sure16:28
zequencetrebmuh: That suggestion is better put to Canonical, or the whole of Ubuntu community16:28
zequenceAnd, rgareus is just sharing his opinion without actually knowing what it means.16:29
zequenceHe's a good coder, but he likes to be anti-Ubuntu, though he has never used it16:29
trebmuhindeed, but I'm not using ubuntu :) Just passing on you this bug report which just happened on #ardour in the hope it can be useful to you and the ubuntustudio users. I really hope that can help, specificaly just before your coming soon freeze/etc..16:30
zequenceIf he wants to suggest something for Ubuntu development, he should take part in it16:30
zequenceBugs can be fixed anytime. The freeze is only for changes.16:30
OvenWerkszequence: so it looks like debian separates the ardour package into two. I am not sure why, but that seems to be the problem.17:38
OvenWerkszequence: The files in the packages look like a set of files that have moved for 5.0 to a different location.17:39
OvenWerksthis would indicate that the script debian uses to create the packages has not been modified to the new position.17:44
OvenWerkszequence: Robin as you say has had so many problems from Ubuntu users (mostly vanilla I might add) that both he and Paul consider Ubuntu the worst dist for audio.17:46
OvenWerkszequence: however, his comments about US are annoying. He keeps (even after being corrected) paroting the line US is UB with extra packages. and no system set up.17:47
OvenWerkszequence: it shows a missunderstanding of packaging and ditro building in general. One could also say exactly the same thing kxstudio or avlinux which they recommend.17:49
OvenWerkszequence: obviously any system changes would be in the form of a package.17:54
trebmuhOvenWerks, re: ardour5 package : i think what happened is debian want to switch to a one-only package named "ardour" instead of one "ardour" package and one "ardour-data" package, but did forget to remove the ardour-data.install file17:55
trebmuhs/i think/i guess/17:55
OvenWerkstrebmuh: that would be a great move.17:55
trebmuhmaybe, yes17:56
* OvenWerks would like to see libjack-jackd2-dev included in jackd217:56
trebmuhwhy so ?18:10
OvenWerkstrebmuh: too many people who want to build something that requires libjack just look for libjack-dev which installs jackd1 and uninstalls any audio project that depends on jacdk2.18:19
OvenWerkslibjack-dev should point to the default jackd dev files18:20
OvenWerksbut it does not.18:20
zequenceIt's actually worse than that. If you do a 'apt-get build-dep' for any package that requires audio, you will get libjack-dev, if the jackd2 variant is not installed18:22
zequence..for any package that requires jack dev files, I mean, of course18:22
trebmuhOvenWerks, mm, yes, make sense18:30
* zequence is installing yakkety just in order to be able to make the bug report18:30
trebmuhhas it been reported to the debian BTS ?18:30
zequenceThe libjack-dev one? Not sure. I think the actual problem might be that libjack-dev depends on jackd1 and not jackd1|jackd218:37
zequenceOr, why does it bring jackd1 in at all?18:38
zequenceAh, right. Can't install the thing even18:57
zequencesakrecoer: You reported a bug about that some time ago, did you not? Installer crash when trying to install Ubuntu Studio?18:57
zequenceI'm reporting the bug in Ubuntu Studio LP page. Then, I'll remove ardour from our meta. That's all I have time for today.18:58
zequenceBug 161422419:01
ubottubug 1614224 in ardour (Ubuntu) "ardour (v5) uninstallable, and causes Ubuntu Studio build failure" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/161422419:01
zequenceHaven't tried installing yakkety on a real machine yet, so could be a VB problem19:03
zequencedebootstrap is too old on xenial, so now I need to install another yakkety. Going for the mini ISO19:20
zequence3h later, all I've been able to do is report a bug..19:20
OvenWerksFor those interested, I would suggest for back ports for US 14.04/16.04 to _not_backport Ardour 5.0  but to wait for 5.1 or 5.2 (5.1 may be skipped) Ardour 5.0 itself works quite well, but one of the LV2 plugins included (a-reverb) has an audible bug (since fixed)19:38
zequenceHas the previous backport landed yet?19:42
zequenceThink snaps is probably a smarter way to "backport".19:43
OvenWerkszequence: I am not sure, my backports seems to list it, but it may be the test? how do I check?19:59
OvenWerkssynaptic says I have 4.720:00
OvenWerksbut it is a version with a ~ppa1 on the back end.20:01
OvenWerkswould it get replaced by a backport if it was in zenial-backports?20:02
OvenWerks*xenial20:02
OvenWerksxenial-backports is enabled on my system.20:03
zequenceThere are exactly three packages in xenial backports for amd64 so far20:04
zequenceardour is not amongst them20:04
zequencearchive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-backports/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz20:05
zequencexenial universe backports, to be more precise20:05
zequenceThink that also explains why it may be difficult to get one through20:07
zequenceNot a big prio, since there are so few20:07
zequenceFinally able to at least do an update to the meta. Will upload as soon as it finish, and that should fix the build error.20:09
zequenceWould be nice to get ardour fixed before Beta 120:09
OvenWerkszequence: yes.20:10
zequenceArdour 5 does seem like perhaps the most important update so far20:27
zequence..for ardour, that is20:27
zequenceMany, many new nice changes.20:27
* zequence is looking forward to trying it out20:28
zequenceNew meta is up. I might have some time tomorrow again. Adios for now.20:44
OvenWerkssee you later.21:28
