[arch-general] PyChess Audio

2015-05-08 Thread Grady Martin
Hello, all.  Does anyone play chess?  PyChess is great and seems mostly free of 
bugs now.  There is one, glaring exception, but it could be specific to Arch.

Sound effects do not play, and the sound files the pychess package installs to 
/usr/share/pychess/sounds do not appear in the sound selection dialogs (which 
have strange untitled filters applied to them).

Should the problem be reported upstream?

Have you installed the gstreamer0.10-plugins?

I cannot reproduce the issue I'm afraid, everything works well on my end
off a fresh install of pychess.

Thank you for the response.

I can find this package neither with $( pkgfile -ir 'gst.*plug' ) nor by 
searching the package database online.  Here is what I do have installed:

■ pacman -Q | grep 'gst.*plug'
gst-plugins-bad 1.4.5-2
gst-plugins-base 1.4.5-1
gst-plugins-base-libs 1.4.5-1
gst-plugins-good 1.4.5-2

Though it seems the pychess package lists none of these as relevant.  Perhaps 
this is a packaging error?

■ pacman -Qi pychess
Name   : pychess
Version: 0.10.1-4
Depends On : gnome-icon-theme  python2-rsvg  pygtksourceview2  
gstreamer0.10-python  desktop-file-utils
Optional Deps  : None

Thanks for the reply.  Could you please share output for the following command? 
 Jan's response makes me wonder whether my system lacks an undocumented 
dependency.

pacman -Q | grep 'gst.*plug'

AFAIK gstreamer0.10-python is for gstreamer0.10 and not for gst,

try installing the same plugins but for gstreamer0.10
And you might want to look at the output of running pychess in a shell

That may be because gstreamer0.10-plugins is a package group, not a
package. :) It contains:
gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins, gstreamer0.10-base-plugins,
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-good-plugins, gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins
