Hey folks, sorry to ask here about an installation issue, but I couldn't think of a better place. I downloaded laaga-0.2.3.tar.gz and built it. First the configure script didn't check for fltk, I found out in the build that I needed it. Then, I made install, with prefix=/usr/local. First, running 'engine' couldn't find alsa_device.so. It was looking in /lib, as shown by strace, although no path is given for the dlopen. Then, when I changed ae_main.cc or whatever it was to look for /usr/local/lib/aes/alsa_driver.so, it hung trying to connect the driver.
I could fix all this, but my point is we need a more polished jack/laaga release. All of these points are, of course, IMHO: * 'engine' should be called jack_engine, or jack-engine, or just jack even. or jack-server. or jackd. * flclient should either be given a new name or not installed. also, it should be optional to build it, and perhaps examples merit their own subdir in the source tree. * all references to audioengine should be removes from the code: ae_main.cc, etc. * the alsa driver should be either renamed (like to libjack-alsa.so) or put in a laaga subdir of /usr/local/lib. Thoughts? Can we get out another release, pretty please? :) Also, any progress on the jack issue? Best regards, wingo
