tsimonq2Eickmeyer: I'll be happy to vouch, just CC me on the ticket.\00:31
EickmeyerOvenWerks: They're all from the same control and copyright file, so that can be fixed.02:59
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Overall, these issues can be overcome.02:59
OvenWerksYes, just a) pointing them out, B) showing the command line I used for them.03:00
EickmeyerYeah, I got that. I think getting it to compile, package, and install was at least half the battle.03:01
OvenWerks I don't remember if it also works running lintian against src directory. I do remember that running against different places shows different things03:01
OvenWerksYes, good work.03:01
EickmeyerI had been working on it since Wednesday, so you can imagine my relief when it actually _worked_.03:02
OvenWerks:)03:02
OvenWerksWhat I remember is that, it was easy to build from git, but hard to get it into a src package03:02
OvenWerksI could create a binary package directly, but that is not acceptable for the debian/ubuntu repos.03:04
OvenWerks(And I do agree with that idea)03:04
EickmeyerYeah. It took a little finessing the makefile, control, and rules files since they were a bit, shall we say, off?03:04
OvenWerks:) yes03:04
EickmeyerIt was looking for a lot of -static build depends and there were parts of the makefile and rules file that had been depricated in February.03:05
OvenWerksthe plugin parts should be static.03:06
EickmeyerIt barked at me every time if the requested package name was *-static.03:06
EickmeyerSo, I just switched to the *-dev package for the build deps.03:07
OvenWerksI think falktx may have his own set of -static packages.03:08
EickmeyerExactly, I just had to point it to what is already in main & universe.03:09
OvenWerksThe "debian way" is to load libs on demand to save memory. However, lib modules tht share namespace can conflict from one plugin to the next.03:10
OvenWerksStatically compiles plugins are "correct"03:10
OvenWerksThis is why many of the good plugins use the author's own GUI toolkit rather than gtk or qt.03:11
OvenWerksOr they use something like fltk where the header file _is_ the lib.03:12
OvenWerksThis is also why Calf and guitarix cause trouble in some setups.03:13
EickmeyerI see.03:13
OvenWerksI haven't tried for some time, but it used to be that after viewing the guitarix plugin GUI, Ardour's colour scheme would change till restart.03:18
OvenWerksDoesn't seem to now.03:21
OvenWerksHmm, It doesn't look like we install guitarix... at least I don't remember removing it.03:23
OvenWerkswe do have guitarix-lv2 though03:23
EickmeyerI've used those plugins with Ardour and have never had an issue.03:25
EickmeyerOf course, I use lv2 nearly exclusively.03:26
OvenWerksIt may be because you are using Ardour from ubuntu and not from Ardour.org, but who knows?03:26
EickmeyerI've used it both ways.03:27
OvenWerksI am wondering why I have only the guitarix-lv2 package installed as our seeds list guitarix03:30
OvenWerksguitarix when run from the commandline works ok, but on exit it core dumps. Not something I would notice running ti from the menu.03:39
EickmeyerInteresting.03:45
OvenWerksBut it works fine as a plugin (so far) which is a much more likely place for me to use it.03:47
EickmeyerSame. I don't even use Calf natively.03:49
OvenWerksI haven't used Calf for ages, nothing in there I need I think.03:50
EickmeyerI use mostly mono input, EQs, and delays for live performance.03:52
EickmeyerThe delays simulate tape delays, which is pretty cool.03:52
OvenWerksI use a-eq or fil403:52
OvenWerksDamian's stuff is pretty good too.03:53
OvenWerksEickmeyer: did you ever get phones/speakers working? What computer do you have?23:45
