Hi Rich, all,
One thing, however, I would like to see happen: the release of Rosegarden
as an AppImag
[...]
I don't mean to start a flame about this topic, but from the pure
Rosegarden point of view, my preference would be for developers and
contributors, who work on this in their (often limited) free time to
prioritize development of Rosegarden itself.
In Linux we luckily have a wide ecosystem of distributions and package
managers (the programmes and the people) who take care of what AppImage
and co. do in an IMHO often rather inefficient way IMHO trying to
copycat Windows 'installers' etc.
I would suggest that if you're unhappy of your distribution's release
cycle and/or support for compiling stuff you might either look into
other distributions or push the maintainers of your distribution to
change things.
I compile Rosegarden myself since a few years without many issues, and I
just follow the 'standard' procedure: it's not _that_ hard, just a bit
(processor-) time consuming :-)
I am now on Manjaro (Arch derivative), but also managed without problems
when I was on Fedora and Debian in the past.
Anyway, if you give compiling a shot and have any issues I'm sure people
on this list will be happy to help you :-)
Lorenzo.
