OvenWerksEickmeyer: so 17 worked before building 19... (did for me for sure) is there any history that can be used to find out when 17 was last built before 19 came out?02:52
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Looks like January: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jackd2/1.9.17~dfsg-1/+build/2091700102:53
EickmeyerI'm glad we're finding this out now because even if I hadn't updated it to 19, 17 still would've been rebuild after Feature Freeze.02:56
OvenWerksEickmeyer: I would say that if you fix one the other will work too02:58
EickmeyerOvenWerks: What's happening is that falktx is developing against libraries in 20.04 with no mind to later libraries, so now that habit is hurting us.02:59
OvenWerksEickmeyer: so am I, it is a lot of work setting up a new version for dev work. 20.04 _is_ the latest LTS after all.03:15
OvenWerksbut still not helpful03:15
OvenWerksI used to run latest release all the time. Then I started writing software...03:16
EickmeyerYeah. The problem is that if you're writing for an OS component (like jack), you have to write against the latest components. Problem with the LTS is it's frozen in time.03:26
OvenWerksin the case of falktx, he is used to writing for kxstudio which was always lts03:28
EickmeyerRight, but Jack is ubiquitous in that just about every distro carries it.03:28
OvenWerksmaintaining jack is something new for him though. I am sure he will get it03:29
EickmeyerRight. But that doesn't help us now.03:29
OvenWerksno.03:29
EickmeyerMeantime we have a blocking bug.03:29
OvenWerksI had to go through the same learning curve though, so I understand.03:30
OvenWerksI had a perfectly working sw package till it got used in 21.04 ish...03:30
OvenWerksArch is even worse03:32
EickmeyerYeah, Arch is a moving target.03:32
OvenWerksI will say, a number of my pr seem to have come from there03:33
OvenWerksthere should be a list of changes of the depends though.03:34
OvenWerksIt does mean going through them though.03:34
OvenWerksIt is possible it is a bug in the dep too.03:35
EickmeyerThat's true. The issue is figuring out which one, and that's way above my knowledge. I can get package versions, but that's about where my expertise ends.03:35
