Dead Beef Audio player

[John A]

Will it be avaible in Pardus 2011 repo?
I see a package for it here:
http://deadbeef.sourceforge.net/download-packages.html

And I did a request for it for some months ago, still marked as new?:
http://bugs.pardus.org.tr/show_bug.cgi?id=13713

I using Ubuntu at the moment. (DeadBeef works great there)
Will install Pardus 2011 when the final version is avaible.

A review of DeadBeef is here:

Hi John A

They have an i686 package for 2009.2 and 2011 on the site.
Unfortunately they have not posted the pspec.xml and actions.py or you could build from source yourself.
You could try requesting that file from the site and posting it on the relevant section,

[John A]

Thanks. I have write to the site so I will wait to any respond.

I can extract the following contents from the package:

I recived a quick answer from the DeadBeef homepage:

"hi John

sorry, but i can't help you
i'm not the pardus packager, i'm not even using this distro."

I was little suprised, someone must have put the packages there.

[mpie]

the contact email of the packager is in the listed info, atalboo is that info extracted with a pisi command or did you just unpack the pisi with ark?

[John A]

Ok I have written to that e-mail to.

[atolboo]

..... ataolboo is that info extracted with a pisi command or did you just unpack the pisi with ark?

Almost ...... the way I did it.
You can take a PiSi package apart with Xarchiver and after this install.tar.xz (<< contains the actual needed files/scripts) with Ark.
The info is in the file metadata.xml

And I think the files that are used for this package are >HERE<

[atolboo]

Ok I have written to that e-mail to.

He is also in the Russian translation team for Pardus as you can see >HERE<

[mpie]

excellent work atalboo, shame I was halfway through working of the pisi info posted ce sera

John a a simple

Code:

sudo pisi bi http://svn.pardus.org.tr/pardus/playground/sdalgic/2009/multimedia/sound/deadbeef/pspec.xml

will build you a version 0.4.2

or it would, however the build dependencies in the pspec.xml are not the devel files.....
in most cases you can just add -devel to the end, but be prepared to hunt down others if it throws error

[mpie]

okay a package build 0.4.4
with
pspec.xml

Code:

use the original, provided on the link from atalboo actions and translations.
edit the actions.py to remove autotools.reconfigure(-vif) line

and away to go.

Btw I have not used the player before but it appears to work as expected.

edited to add pulseaudio-libs-devel and alsa-lib-devel as only oss output on installed player

[atolboo]

My result of a

Code:

sudo pisi bi pspec.xml

is

.
Building PiSi source package: deadbeef
.
** Building package deadbeef
.
Done.
All of the files under the install dir (/var/pisi/deadbeef-0.4.4-1/install) has been collected by package(s)
Keeping Build Directory
*** 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)

More info about source files and where to get the package fill follow later

[mpie]

good

Was that before or after my edit? as it works with oss output only but its nice to have the choice.

It does take a while to build though

[atolboo]

Was that before or after my edit?

I don't know...
Have a  in the build files which you can find >HERE<
And remarks are welcome...

     and where to get the package fill follow later

Package is available >HERE<

[mpie]

yeah that the one before edit,  if you look in preferences for output you will have null or oss only.

the only difference is alsa-lib to alsa-lib-devel
and pulseaudio to pulse-libs-devel in <BuildDependency>
otherwise nice clean package, you could probably speed up compilation by disabling tests in actions.py
add --disable-test to autotools.configure
