OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: I don't know if you watch the mailing lists or not, but it may be a good deal to switch the upstream for a2jmidid to https://github.com/linuxaudio/a2jmidid | 14:57 |
---|---|---|
OvenWerks | There has been a new release there. In particular it has been ported to python3 | 15:00 |
Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: Ok, well, we can do that for 20.04. I can get on packaging that. | 17:12 |
Eickmeyer | Probably not today, but I can do that relatively soon. | 17:12 |
studiobot | <teward001> yeah at this point you're too late in the cycle to switch ;) | 17:42 |
studiobot | <teward001> so you have to wait for 20.04 | 17:42 |
Eickmeyer | @teward001 Obviously. | 17:46 |
Eickmeyer | But, yeah. Could even bug Ross to get it in Debian and then sync. | 17:46 |
Eickmeyer | I'll be out for a few hours. | 17:55 |
OvenWerks | Eickmeyer, teward: changing a2jmidid is not urgent, merely so as to be done before python2 goes away. The original upstream it seems has gone away and the new one has taken over/forked it so as to keep it from dying. | 22:03 |
Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: Then it needs to happen during the next cycle. Python2 is going away prior to 20.04's release. | 22:04 |
Eickmeyer | It's already being actively removed from Debian. | 22:04 |
OvenWerks | so if we want to keep it (until the same code finally gets wrapped into jackd2) we need to use the new upstream | 22:04 |
Eickmeyer | Agreed. | 22:04 |
teward | Heres a question... | 22:11 |
teward | Its a fork but does it officially replace it? If jot then perhaps it should be considered the ‘next gen’ version with a separate package name. | 22:12 |
