You might not actually need jack or ao.. Ah yes, compiling is right up there with pushing camels through eyes of needles (LOL). I thought about eliminating jack, since it's a virtual machine on which I am attempting to compile Liquidsoap, and it appears jaqck is needed for, well, audio hardware, like speaker and headphone jacks, which this machine certainly doesn't have. So I commented out the lines in PACKAGES that reference ocaml-bjack and ocaml-ao. running configure again got me this at the end: checking whether pkg-config knows about gstreamer-1.0... configure: error: gstreamer-1.0.pc not found.. Do you need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH? So I went back and looked at what ocaml-gstream was for, decided I didn't need it, re-ran configure, it couldn't find taglib, so installed taglib-devel. Definitely moving forward. Now I'm down to this: checking whether pkg-config knows about shine >= 2.0.0... configure: error: shine.pc not found.. Do you need to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH? OK, back to PACKAGES; Says shine is used for fixed-point MP3 encoding. Sorry, been dealing with MP3's since they were invented, but never heard the term "fixed-point MP3 encoding" before, so I looked it up. I couldn't find an explanation for the term, but I did find many references to shine. I tried to look it up using yum, no soap (liquid or otherwise). No such package. >- Have you looked at using opam? opam can sometimes help handling external >dependencies (though in case of RPM I don't think that it knows much about >them) but also, compiling with opam makes things much easier in general. I don't know anything about opam--what it is, what it's used or good to be used for, etc. >2016-09-15 15:46 GMT-05:00 Steve Matzura <s...@noisynotes.com>: > >> OK, it's getting better.
