Package: lmms Version: 1.0.0-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
lmms provides quite a few LADSPA plugins, what about making them available to other programs too? Other programs look for LADSPA plugins in some "standard" location like for instance "/usr/lib/ladspa", if the plugins provided by lmms were reachable from there they could be shared with those other programs. For example I wanted to use the vocoder plugin with GStreamer or with Audacity, in order to do that it was enough to create a symlink to the shared object in the aforementioned location: $ ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lmms/ladspa/vocoder_1337.so /usr/lib/ladspa Now GStreamer finds the plugin: $ gst-inspect-1.0 ladspa | grep vocoder ladspa-vocoder-1337-so-vocoder-lmms: Vocoder for LMMS Maybe as a long term solution an "lmms-plugins" package could be created putting the shared objects in /usr/lib/ladspa and have lmms look for them in there. Similar packages exist already, you can see them with apt-file: $ apt-file search /usr/lib/ladspa/ I don't know if this will play nicely with multi-arch, and there will be some conflicts if plugins with the same name are provided by different packages, but it's still worth considering IMHO.
