Hey Stefan, as mentioned previously, we now have Beast AppImage builds available here:
https://bintray.com/beast-team/testing/Beast-AppImage These are built on a Ubuntu-18.04 (bionic) and I'm currently testing the AppImage on a Fedora-28 system. Our AppImage includes libfluidsynth1 as hard Beast dependency, but that in turn depens on libjack-jackd2-0 which is *not* included in the AppImage. The reason libjack.so.0.1.0 is not included is that it's blacklisted by the AppImage tools, because it tends to be tightly coupled to jackd: https://github.com/AppImage/AppImages/blob/master/excludelist So basically, because of Beast depending on libfluidsynth.so.1, and that depending on libjack.so.0.1.0, Beast cannot be run on Fedora eventhough it does not *USE* libjack.so.0.1.0: $ ./beast-0.13.0-alpha-341-g36a856c.x64.AppImage ./beast-0.13.0-alpha-341-g36a856c.x64.AppImage: error while loading shared libraries: libjack.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Can you look into whether it's feasible for us to build a libfluidsynth version (on bionic) that's good enough to fulfill the requirements of libbse, but not link against libjack? I'll investigate if there's an easy but reproducible way for us to provide a Docker image that can have pre-built components like this or larger sample/instrument sets. -- Yours sincerely, Tim Janik https://testbit.eu/timj Free software author. _______________________________________________ beast mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/beast
