Re: How should a bug tracker be managed?

- User doesn't come back because the issue is fixed (or because he doesn't care anymore). Working on that would have been wasted time anyway. It is only a waste of time if the user is the only one impacted by the issue. It is very common for users to report bugs which impact many users and then ove...

Re: Ardour - support only for official builds?

The Ardour bugtracker has 2600+ open entries some that are untouched for 10y+ years. http://tracker.ardour.org/view_all_bug_page.php?filter=82504&page_number=54 This is not how a healthy open source project looks like. While neglected issue trackers do drive me a bit nuts to deal with them, the...

Re: MOD Devices sponsors Linuxmusicians.com

What we want to do with the MOD Labs is to provide a complete space dedicated to the developers/hackers/makers communities Just out of curiosity what do you mean by "space" here? Is this referring to a physical space for interaction with new hardware or primarily a different set of discus...

Re: Flatpak - Flathub

The recent news around all of these options flatpack/snap/etc sound like attempts to push packaging efforts for projects further upstream to the open source projects themselves rather than the distros. This is great for proprietary apps which more or less need this sort of control, but it's just shi...

Re: Zyn-Fusion LV2 3.0.3

If you have time to post time to post backtraces of the crash and other debugging info to https://github.com/zynaddsubfx/zyn-fusion-issues/issues it would be appreciated.

Re: Goodbye VST2

LV2 is a much better format, in all points... Hmm - it could be better - lets take a look at something which should be trivial, as an example: Not specific to this example in particular, but in my opinion LV2 ends up coming off as vastly over-complicated due to sub-par documentation rather than act...

Re: [ANN] ZynAddSubFX 3.0.0 - Zyn-Fusion

I found another problem with Zynfusion in Ardour and in Reaper. When trying to midi learn parameters I can reproducibly crash Zynfusion and the DAW crashes also (just closes). I cannot replicate this bug in the installed version of Zyn-Fusion on my system testing in standalone operation and testing...

Re: [ANN] ZynAddSubFX 3.0.0 - Zyn-Fusion

I can't recall the status of keyboard input for reaper off the top of my head, but to get keyboard events in ardour you have to bypass the host capture of those events. IIRC this was something like a green keyboard icon in ardours's GUI.

Re: trying to build supercollider 3.9.1 for ubuntu xenial (16.04)

Sounds like C code being compiled as C++. IIRC -fpermissive should be a viable workaround.

Re: ZynFusion goes Open Source

IRQ priority might be an issue. I know I've had issues where GPU load was cutting in front of soundcard load in the past.

Re: ZynFusion goes Open Source

I did follow the instructions. Installed all the dependencies. I even tried variations. Installed as root, sudo and user. Always get the error about unable to write typical root owned directories, /opt, usr/, . It never asks for sudo password and never get an error about dependencies. When do you g...

Re: ZynFusion goes Open Source

The issues with permissions have been posted for some time at various times and closed with no resolution. We have tried installing as user, sudo and as root. Always get the same permission problems. I don't know how installing as root gives permission problems, unless the script is trying to sudo ...

Re: ZynFusion goes Open Source

I am one of the many who have had nothing but problems, usually with the compilation and bugs in the install scripts. If you encounter a bug the best place to track it is over on the github issue tracker. Or maybe it is an abandoned project? I'm legitimately curious what makes you think that the pr...
