Trouble running Aldrin on Ubuntu 9.04

[gimmeapill]

Yep, thanks a lot for your work Victor
That was it for the most part, everything should install under dist-packages for python2.6.
I'm still struggling to build correct packages and current hg doesn't seem to work anyway(I have problems on Debian as well with python2.5).

[gimmeapill]

ok, done finally:

Code: Select all

deb http://www.pohunek.free.fr/aldrin-nightly-builds/ubuntu/9.04/ binary/
deb-src http://www.pohunek.free.fr/aldrin-nightly-builds/ubuntu/9.04/ source/


I applied all of Victor's fixes and corrected as well python-zzub, so now everything installs under /...python2.6/dist-packages.
But...I had to rollback aldrin to 20090329 (latest functional build for Ubuntu 8.10), as there's definitely something unholy with the latest hg.

Victor - can you have a look?

I couldn't build debs from the armstron latest hg revision. I just copied the debian directory from the march package to the fresh hg revision, chaged the changelog, and tried to build with debuild -us -uc. It fails to install CustomLFO ( I attach the build log).

I could build the aldrin package from the latest revision, though, but there are several import errors that I fixed (see patch below). With the patch, aldrin runs and plays songs, but I haven't tested it thoroughly if there are more errors.

----patch begins here -----------

Sorry, of course it won't install CustomLFO, as it is not present in the hg repo.
I'm going to try with your sources.

[victor]

I successfully built armstromg from your sources, I had to delete the .hg/ folder (I also deleted the .hgtags file though maybe it's not necessary). Aldrin runs fine with this revision. I attach my diff.

Not quite there yet, it seems. When I try to load for example the demosong "paniq-knark", i get these messages:

AFAICT none of these plugins are available in aldrin as I load it. I tried to look at /etc/aldrin/path.cfg, but all I found suspicious was this line:

Code: Select all

site_packages = /home/gimmeapill/Software/Aldrin/packaging_aldrin/aldrin/debian/aldrin/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages

Which I changed to:

Code: Select all

site_packages = /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages

But it didn't make any difference. This is for the packages from the repository posted by gimmeapill. Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated.

[gimmeapill]

hmm, crap - I'll fix it ASAP (as soon as I figure out what could possibly go wrong...)

Thx for the report!

In the meantime, I can only suggest you to try Victor's packages

[victor]

This was hard to debug. The problem is that the lunar plugin path is hardcoded in liblunar.so. When building the packages DESTDIR is set to the debian build directory, and this value is passed to the compiler, so liblunar.so tries to find lunar plugins in the debian build directory. As gimmeapill and me had build directories as we built the packages lunar plugins are loaded alright, but if I delete this dir, lunar plugins are not found by liblunar.so.

I attach a patch that omits passing DESTDIR to the compiler when liblunar.so is built. Now lunar plugins are found by liblunar.so. This is ugly, as it is recommended not to modify the sources in order to build debian packages, so if you find a better way to fix this tell me.

The wrong site-packages path in /etc/aldrin/path.cfg does not affect aldrin (it does not in my system), and I think it can be ignored, though I can try to fix the SConstruct script so this path is correct.

Hope now we can build correct packages.

ok, new packages built with Victor's latest patch - I hope they work this time, because it's starting to get really messy...

[djauto23]

Thanks a whole lot! Now it finally works!
