Eickmeyer[m]RikMills: Thanks for the update. Man, that sucks. I liked working with him. I knew about the cancer, but didn't know how that battle was going.16:42
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: Any idea if jack2 1.9.17 fixes that bug that we had with Carla wrt the metadata? Seems to have a number of fixes in that direction.16:52
Eickmeyer[m]And... /me takes a moment to facepalm about rgh blaming studio-controls16:53
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: I am wondering if after that lib is rebuilt will python3-jack have to be as well?16:54
OvenWerks(not sure if that is the actual package name16:54
Eickmeyer[m]I don't think so? But, I don't think that SRU was acted upon.16:55
OvenWerksHmm can we at least get something in backports?16:56
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: Which library was it?16:56
* Eickmeyer[m] is having trouble finding the bug16:56
Eickmeyer[m]cffi, right?16:56
OvenWerkshttps://github.com/ovenwerks/studio-controls/issues/4316:57
studiobot<teward001> you mean the cffi no change rebuild request?16:57
Eickmeyer[m]Nvm, found the bug.16:59
studiobot<teward001> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-cffi/+bug/1912535 not this one right?16:59
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1912535 in python-cffi (Ubuntu Groovy) "[SRU] python-cffi in Groovy needs a no-change rebuild" [High,New]16:59
Eickmeyer[m]teward: Yes, that's the one. Unfortunately, stefanor doesn't seem to agree.16:59
Eickmeyer[m]So, if that doesn't need to be rebuilt, then what does?17:00
studiobot<teward001> Eickmeyer: have we ruled out the case of someone rolling a newer CFFI themselves (or an older one because they haven't done a `sudo apt dist-upgrade` lately)?17:00
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: ? ^17:00
OvenWerksthere seems to have been more than one person who has the trouble17:01
studiobot<teward001> one thing i do note is, they're running -installer on top of a regular Ubuntu17:02
studiobot<teward001> is this possibly causing conflicts?17:02
studiobot<teward001> it SHOULDN'T i wouldn't think, but...17:02
Eickmeyer[m]teward: No, because it doesn't deal with that library except as a dependency. It's simply a metapackage installer, that's all.17:03
Eickmeyer[m]Studio IS Ubuntu.17:04
Eickmeyer[m]I was looking at KXStudio in case it carried that library, and it doesn't, so we can rule that out.17:06
* OvenWerks has rebooted to 20.10 and is now updating 200 plus packages17:10
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks, @teward001: Upon investigating further, it seems as though someone uploaded a newer version of cffi AFTER libffi and python3-cffi were already built. This is what is causing the regression.17:24
Eickmeyer[m]Honestly, I'm not sure how britney didn't catch this.17:27
Eickmeyer[m]sirffsalot frustrates me to no end. They want their hand held through everything.17:58
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: The reason I was asking about Jackd2 1.9.17 is that I'm wondering if it would be safe to backport it. We previously had 16 patched.18:04
Eickmeyer[m]er... 14.18:04
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: one thing at a time  :)18:09
* OvenWerks reboots 20.1018:09
Eickmeyer[m]Ok. :)18:09
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: BTW, I have not yet been able to get speelling checking working in scribus18:12
Eickmeyer[m]Yikes. Bug report?18:13
OvenWerksbecause someone else has gotten it to work... I am guessing I have not done something correctly.18:31
OvenWerksautojack is running incredibly slow on 20.1019:06
OvenWerksOhh. ERROR: a2j_alsa_connect_from: can't subscribe to 20:0 - Device or resource busy19:18
OvenWerksport skipped: AudioFire12 [20] (capture): AudioFire12 MIDI 119:18
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: it appears we are missing ffado-tools... or better yet multimedia-firewire19:21
Eickmeyer[m]Uhoh...19:50
OvenWerksEickmeyer[m]: ok the alsa fireworks module in 20.10 does not work.19:51
OvenWerksThe ffado fireworks module does work19:52
* OvenWerks audiofire12 device cqan run at 16/3 :)19:52
Eickmeyer[m]How did we miss this?19:52
OvenWerksMaybe it was installed as part of something else? probably I installed it on my system and because we call one of the tools from controls externally, it fails without making controls not work19:54
OvenWerksand most people won't see it anyway if they don't have a FW box19:54
Eickmeyer[m]I'm showing the packages exist. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libffado19:54
Eickmeyer[m]Are they just not in by default? (I'm on 20.04 for work purposes right now)19:55
OvenWerksI am guessing they are not installed as a part of controls.19:56
Eickmeyer[m]OvenWerks: That doesn't seem right. They're in the audio-core meta and the seed.19:56
OvenWerksBTW, I am not having the other problem (cffi)19:57
Eickmeyer[m]Interesting. 19:58
OvenWerksI should probaly start off with a fresh install of 20.10, this is an updated beta (or maybe before)19:58
wonkomake sure 21.04 is rock solid guys. That's what I'll be installing after I move. :-P21:10
Eickmeyer[m]wonko: There's only so much of that we have control over from here. :)23:52
wonkoThen you aren't trying hard enough! :-P23:53
