Paul, Please read the content of my email.. You yourself had specifically asked for further output from me regarding the issue of libraries attempting to build as dynamically linked when they should have been static.. I provided that to you directly and the list and no response came...Yes the output was too big to go immediately be entered into this list, I then responded by alerting you to this fact.
Following no further response I tried to then solve the problem myself with the limited knowledge I have but came against further problems.. again no response.. I am not asking for hand holding.. I have succesfully built ardour before on other systems but when I am asked for further information and it doesn't get responded to that's when I have to start questioning. I always try to resolve issues myself when I can before mailing any list. I'd rather not have to worry about building the software and be able to alert you to bugs/errors and potential new "cool features" but no resonse to answers I have provided to specific questions of me seems a little dubious if not disrespectful cheers Allan On Thu, 2003-02-13 at 01:32, Paul Davis wrote: > >I think if (if) the Ardour developers are _expecting_ quality feedback > >from normal users (not just programmers) at this stage, they should > >provide tarballs of the stable CVS snapshots they want to be tested. > > > >But maybe they want to wait for 1.0 before letting endusers test it? > >In that case, maybe you tried to use it too early in its development ? > >I think they honestly appreciate your effort to participate, there > >should be no doubt about that, but maybe Ardour is still changing too > >rapidly for you to be able to track it. > > this is completely correct. > > there is nobody on the ardour-dev mailing list with the time to > provide hand-holding for the compile process. i want everything about > building ardour right now to shout at you "if you can't do this, give > up!". > > nobody in their right minds expects endusers to use CVS, let alone > have all the auto-tools installed on their systems with the precise > mix of versions required for this crappy but irreplaceable set of > tools to work right. > > when ardour is ready for end users, binaries will be available. until > then, if you can't build it and nobody answers your questions quickly, > take that as a sign that (1) you should wait and (2) people are busy > working on cool new features. > > --p > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.NET email is sponsored by: > SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! > http://www.vasoftware.com > _______________________________________________ > ardour-dev mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ardour-dev ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
