Re: Bug#795209: ITP: sndio -- Small audio and MIDI framework from OpenBSD
Good morning, This is upstream for RoarAudio package. Just want to express my offer to help in upstream parts. Thank you for your offer. Unfortunately I cannot get sndio's own tools (or other sndio clients built against the "real" libsndio, such as mpv) to work with roaraudio's sndio compatibility at all. It seems to me that there simply has to be work upstream to support the current sndio API/ABI if roaraudio is to be compatible with it, but possibly I'm simply not doing it right. I can't find any documentation on the topic. It want. I think it was never moved to the new SONAME as there was no need on Debian (in contrast to OpenBSD). Thank you for pointing out. Maybe it's possible to solve this using the alternatives system? Is the alternatives system intended to choose between different implementations of a shared library? At present most such situations seem to be handled by simply having the different implementations conflict with each other (libjpeg and libjpeg-turbo, for instance).

You'll probably need to coordinate with the roaraudio maintainer over who provides /usr/lib/*/libsndio.so.2. At the moment roaraudio provides libsndio2 from libroar-compat2, and it has previously been linked into openal-soft via openal-soft's support for sndio (<https://bugs.debian.org/680742> - openal-soft does not directly support roaraudio). S As it happens the "real" sndio packaging (as of upstream's 0.0.10) won't want to provide libsndio2, but libsndio6; the shared object it installs is /usr/lib/*/libsndio.so.6.0. It will still be a concern to make sure any sndio-supporting programs in Debian can work with either sndio or RoarAudio's compatibility layer; possibly libroar-compat2 *really* wants to provide (and conflict with) libsndio6? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#795209: ITP: sndio -- Small audio and MIDI framework from OpenBSD
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Peter Piwowarski * Package name: sndio Version : 0.0.10 Upstream Author : Alexandre Ratchov * URL : http://www.sndio.org/ * License : ISC Programming Lang: C Description : Small audio and MIDI framework from OpenBSD Sndio is a small, simple audio and MIDI framework, developed by the OpenBSD project. It provides a lighweight audio and MIDI server and a well-documented userspace API to access the server or audio hardware in a uniform way. Sndio is designed to work well for both desktop and professional music applications, and supports features found in more complex sound systems such as per-application volume control, software mixing, and network transparency. Lots of software in Debian has native support for sndio already (mpv and SDL2, to give two examples), and it's also useful for development work and interoperability with OpenBSD. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
