** Description changed: [Impact] * Users have reported the inability to use soundfonts with Carla hosted - synthesizer plugins + allowing them to make sound which they weren't before. * Backporting this to the stable release would fix the problem. * The upload simply adds libsndfile1-dev as a build dependency, also includes an upstream patch from the author to fix incompatibilities with lsp-plugins. [Test Case] * Add any soundfont-utilizing synthesizer plugin to Carla, patch audio out to system out, attempt to play notes either using a MIDI keyboard or using the canvas keyboard in Carla. Carla gives the following error: ad_open(): fatal: no decoder backend available * Using the same procedures after the libsndfile1-dev build dependency is added should result in actual notes being produced. [Regression Potential] - * None, simply adds a build dependency and patch to existing package + * Adding libsndfile1-dev as a build dependency allows synthesizer + plugins to actually make sound, which they weren't before, but instead + were causing the aforementioned error. This is primarily to allow said + synthesizer to use sfz sound fonts. I see no regression potential here. + + * Adding the patch from the upstream developer (in debian/patches) + fixes a compatibility issue with lsp-plugins in which the plugins were + not behaving correctly in some cases. This has been tested to work + upstream, and is included in the beta version of Carla 2.1. No + regression here as it fixes an existing bug upstream. + + * Had to fix the debian/rules file to allow the wine bridges to build + against the version of wine included in the archives due to a bug in + said wine package. Mostly a workaround, but allows build to take place. + If there is a regression here, I do not see it in my testing. (built + correctly in ppa:ubuntustudio-dev/autobuild) [Other Information] * Upload includes a patch from upstream developer to fix compatibility issues with lsp-plugins, and debian/rules has been modified to deal with FTBFS bug introduced by wine-development included in eoan.
