Hi folk, I've recently taken an interest in building LMMS. I'm using openSuse12 with the lmms-0.4.13 tarball.
What I'm finding is that the version of STK which is installed via the normal openSuse mechanism ( i.e. via Yast2 ) omits a number of headers which are included in the STK distribution from the STK source at https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk/ . LMMS appears to rely on at least one of these headers, namely TubeBell.h. Looking further into this, it appears that the omitted headers are those which indicate a possible patent problem with the technique used. So my question is, what are people normally doing here ? Clearly I could just substitute the openSuse STK distribution with the Stanford distribution and continue to build, but that does not address the question of patents. At the moment I feel that LMMS is putting me in a position where I have to either agree to take a risk on patent infringement, or else hack LMMS to remove the offending functionality ( or simply omit the entire STK ). I guess my strong preference would be that the *default* LMMS build omitted any functionality which posed such a risk.
