I can help too, I'm a user of many audio packages, and Audacity is one
of the most important.

Speaking as a maintainer of it, the short answer is that I have not had
time to untangle the mess that is the most recent upstream 2.4.2 release.
Upstream has made many changes that are becoming unfriendly to packagers in
the recent release that I haven't had the day or so it would probably take
to sort through them (they completely removed their autotools build system
in a patch release - with no deprecation warning and without a fully
working CMake build system that can use system libraries, they are
switching to their own fork of wxWidgets and are starting to enforce its
usage by build system checks, etc.).

I basically took the package to make sure it didn't get retired during the
FTBFS after GCC 10 landed, but I am not a daily user of it. If you want to
help maintain the package, just let me know and I can add you.

Re: Potential module for wxGTK3.1 unstable series / Audacity

2019-12-03 Thread Matt Domsch
CubicSDR (Ham Radio panadapter spectrum visualizer using inexpensive
receivers) upstream moved to wxWidgets 3.1 over 18 months ago.  While I had
some success in backing out some specific changes that let it compile with
wxGTK 3.0, upstream has moved on considerably since then, making extensive
use of wxGLAttributes in various calls, which is far harder to back out.
Furthermore, upstream won't look at issues on older releases. [1]   Lending
some urgency are multiple abrt-reported segfaults, including on F30 and F31
[2].  Either a wxGTK 3.1 package in the main repos, or in copr, will be
needed to make this package usable again.

But why would you want to abuse renowned applications such as Audacity in 
stable releases of Fedora for that purpose?

Feel free to ship wxGTK 3.1 and an Audacity built against it in a Copr, for 
people deliberately opting in to testing such a build. But please do not 
force it onto users of stable releases, who have not opted in to becoming 
beta testers.

Sure, but that is what Copr is for. Please put up a wxGTK 3.1 Copr and start 
rebuilding applications against it there (if rebuilding is actually needed).

Not sure, but what is sure is that it would make your build of Audacity much 
less useful compared to using the stable wxGTK that ships in stable Fedora 
and to which all other wxGTK applications are linked by default.

No. (unless it was done by simply turning on a config item). Looking 
closer, building audacity requires an already built wxGTK/dev, which is 
a separate process. I'm not sure the Fedora packaging system could even 
do that - build a build requires from a bundled lib, and then install it 
before the main application build ?




I would strongly suggesting talking to Audacity team about why they
need a fork of wx 3.1.x and why they cannot get their fixes/changes
upstreamed (and backported to wx 3.0). Upstream wx is usually
pretty good about backporting fixes to 3.0 if you request it.


I just took a quick look at the changes in their wx 3.1.1 fork.  It 
appears they are all Windows and Mac related.  So, their instructions to 
use their fork when building on Linux make no sense.
Interesting... and is there any difference between 3.0.4 and what they 
have as 3.1.1 ?



I would recommend doing as Kevin suggested and continue to build against 
wx 3.0.4 in Fedora.  If you run into a bug that has been fixed in wx 
3.1.x, feel free to report it and we will get the fix backported.


While the above is what I've already done locally and what I'll do...

I think it's a good idea to make available these (advanced) build 
environments, without requiring a whole "rawhide" machine to do this on 
(which currently still only has the old version anyway).


Don't we want to make it easier for all sorts of people to contribute to 
open source development. Modules sound like an easy way for that to 
happen (for the user of the module). We need tester's and developers 
using future "pieces" that interest them without foregoing an otherwise 
stable machine.


And this usage can be the impetus that allows library development to be 
well tested by multiple real applications and issues 
known/fixes/improvements in place before the library hardens it's 
ABI/API interfaces at the release.


In this case extending this idea to also make other Fedora packaged, 
wxGTK3 using applications [1] built with the (hopefully soon) to be 
released library would allow more thorough testing of the library, and 
give us ahead of time the things that need work - in either the library 
or the applications.



Given it would be me doing the work - although I'll need some guidance - 
are any guidelines etc. actually being broken if I was to do the 
modularity thing for wxGTK/Audacity ?


ps. I haven't come across the docs on the packaging side of modules - 
any pointers, please ?

Please no. There is a numeric version, please use that, not some ugly 
version hack.

What would be acceptable, I suppose, is:
Name: wxGTK3.2
Version: 3.1.3
though some might even object to that (and demand Name: wxGTK3.1 instead).

They have been writing this all this time, this is not new in 2.3.3. Just 
ignore it, as usual when an upstream recommends using bundled libraries.

Those are not your job as the Audacity packager to fix. Just build it 
against 3.0.4. We will get wxGTK 3.2.x when it is actually released.

Those examples are bad. The Modularity team wants to push modules for this 
use case, but they are absolutely not suitable. See the recent threads about 
Modularity.

In the mean time, you can use Copr to provide updated wxGTK + Audacity.
Keeping the resolution of possible conflicts on the users.

Vít

I think the easiest solution would be to introduce a wxGTK "compat 
package" for 3.1, assuming it wouldn't conflict with the stable 
versions, and provide both the compat package and audacity builds based 
on it via COPR for testing.


https://trac.wxwidgets.org/wiki/Roadmap

Perhaps calling a compat package 3.2.0.develseries.3.1.3 etc would make 
sense to indicate to consumers that they are using what will soon (TM) 
become the main version.

Issue:
Audacity development (git) requires linking against wxGTK3.1.
The normal Fedora wxGTK3 package is at wxGTK3-3.04 in F29/30/31/devel.
wxGTK3.1 is a development series which eventually leads to wxGTK3.2

Upstream is currently at 3.1.3 and expecting at least a 3.1.4 next year.
Audacity 2.3.3 release is imminent (RC02).


Hi, one of the wxGTK maintainers here.  Where is the requirement to use 
wxGTK 3.1 documented?  Like Kevin, I can't find that documented.  And if 
it is definitely required, *why* is it required?


I would like to be able to release the next Audacity (once tested) 
when it drops.


I've been reading about Fedora modules, and am wondering whether the 
following would make sense as a potential solution ?:


$ dnf  modules  list  wxGTK3


I would be strongly opposed to using a module for this.  If you 
absolutely *must* have wx 3.1, we should just use a regular 
(non-modular) package. Note that we've already had one request for wx 
3.1 [1], but I've been hesitant to package it since it has unstable 
API/ABI and we typically don't package development releases.


Can you provide amplifying information on the wx 3.1 requirement from 
audacity first?
See earlier, and I'm not sure how realistic this web analysis tool is... 
I don't think it's the same one I've used before:

Because it fixes many issues with the earlier version.


On Archlinux audacity-git [1] builds against the default repo version of
wxGTK, i.e. 3.0.4, so it does not seem to be required.
It can in fact build against it - but then shows all the bugs that 
building against the old wxGTK entails. It means I can't get upstream 
Audacity support when my users crash because they aren't running the 
recommended library (there is other locally adjusted libs which Audacity 
uses). Not that this is different from the past - but I would like it to be.

Does it really? I cannot find this requirement in their git repository.

 1) Clone wxWidgets and checkout 3.1.1 from the Audacity fork of the

I missed the fact that they build against their fork of wxWidgets from 
their own repo; I'm not sure whether it started as 3.1.1 or not.




The normal Fedora wxGTK3 package is at wxGTK3-3.04 in F29/30/31/devel.
wxGTK3.1 is a development series which eventually leads to wxGTK3.2
release. Upstream is currently at 3.1.3 and expecting at least a 3.1.4
next year. Audacity 2.3.3 release is imminent (RC02).


Ewww! Why is nobody complaining to Audacity upstream about that (assuming
that they really do require 3.1)? Requiring an unreleased/unstable wxGTK (I
would not count a development release as "released") makes no sense
whatsoever for a stable release of Audacity. Why are they not maintaining a
stable branch based on a stable wxGTK release? They should.

I found out yesterday, and that's why I'm trying to find most suitable way.


I would like to be able to release the next Audacity (once tested) when
it drops.


I would recommend against doing that (unless you can get it to build against
wxGTK 3.0 after all). Please wait until wxGTK 3.2 is actually stable and
available in Fedora.
Well, ... it does build and run against 3.0.4, but lots of "already 
fixed" - in wxGTK - issues are present.


I would prefer to follow Audacity teams requirements, as otherwise any 
issue reported in Fedora - I get the "did you build it like we said ?" 
response.



I've been reading about Fedora modules, and am wondering whether the
following would make sense as a potential solution ?:

$ dnf  modules  list  wxGTK3

Fedora Modular 30 - x86_64
Name Stream   Profiles Summary
wxGTK3   3.1.n-unstable   default [d], devel   GTK wxWidgets GUI library


No, that would be a very bad idea, because it means Audacity would then
conflict with all other wxGTK applications, or at least force them to run
with the unstable wxGTK with which they were not tested (depending on
whether wxGTK 3.1 is binary-backwards-compatible with 3.0 or not).
But if my user's "must" have the latest Audacity, and don't care about 
any other WxGTK3 using software, shouldn't this be my user's choice to 
make ?

It seems that modules would allow it.

Modules are always the wrong solution for libraries because they are 

Isn't that exactly what the module examples are doing ?


not parallel-installable.

Agreed, I got that much from the reading I've done on modules.


If the module was setup like this, then could the normal repo
audacity.spec package:
BuildRequires: wxGTK3:3.1.n-unstable/devel

Requires: does this get sorted out magically like in a normal package ?


No, building against a module does not work like that, it is more
complicated. But a module is a bad idea anyway, see above.

Where can I find information on using a module in another package ?


As I'm not on the wxGTK3 package team, can I do this without their
approval/assistance ?


No, you definitely need to find a solution together with them.
First step completed: Scott says he is on the wxGTK maintainers team, 
and thanks everyone for your responses so far.

On Archlinux audacity-git [1] builds against the default repo version of 
wxGTK, i.e. 3.0.4, so it does not seem to be required.

I would be strongly opposed to using a module for this.  If you absolutely 
*must* have wx 3.1, we should just use a regular (non-modular) package. 
Note that we've already had one request for wx 3.1 [1], but I've been 
hesitant to package it since it has unstable API/ABI and we typically 
don't package development releases.


Can you provide amplifying information on the wx 3.1 requirement from 
audacity first?

I think the easiest solution would be to introduce a wxGTK "compat package"
for 3.1, assuming it wouldn't conflict with the stable versions, and
provide both the compat package and audacity builds based on it via COPR
for testing.

Potential module for wxGTK3.1 unstable series / Audacity

2019-11-11 Thread David Timms

Issue:
Audacity development (git) requires linking against wxGTK3.1.
The normal Fedora wxGTK3 package is at wxGTK3-3.04 in F29/30/31/devel.
wxGTK3.1 is a development series which eventually leads to wxGTK3.2 release.
Upstream is currently at 3.1.3 and expecting at least a 3.1.4 next year.
Audacity 2.3.3 release is imminent (RC02).

I would like to be able to release the next Audacity (once tested) when 
it drops.


I've been reading about Fedora modules, and am wondering whether the 
following would make sense as a potential solution ?:


$ dnf  modules  list  wxGTK3

Fedora Modular 30 - x86_64
Name Stream   Profiles Summary
wxGTK3   3.1.n-unstable   default [d], devel   GTK wxWidgets GUI library


If the module was setup like this, then could the normal repo 
audacity.spec package:

BuildRequires: wxGTK3:3.1.n-unstable/devel

Requires: does this get sorted out magically like in a normal package ?

I don't know whether any other wxGTK using packages could or should be 
using the wxGTK devel series.


As I'm not on the wxGTK3 package team, can I do this without their 
approval/assistance ?


Advice ? Am I on the right track ?

Cheers, Dave.

Took a little more time than I thought but I believe this is all fixed now.

I think I found the issue.
Last week we finally migrated the ACLs from pkgdb to pagure but it looks like
the query I used to export the ACLs from pkgdb wasn't restricted to active
Fedora branch, so it tooks the old branch as well which ended up for you with
two entries:
rpms,audacity,mschwendt,commit,Approved
rpms,audacity,mschwendt,commit,Obsolete

The first line added you and the second one was ignored (I wasn't going to
migrate obsolete ACLs) so you can guess the outcome of that :)

I fixed the query and now have the proper data/ACL list and the good news is
that it seems that the diff between the two lists isn't that big so I should be
able to correct the mistake this morning.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for bringing this up :)

Data migration bug. It's not only "audacity". Other ancient packages have

Sorry, I already wrote in bugzilla what happened, my mistake, hopefully
it is fixed. Soundtouch in f23 stable, happens because we got 3
positive votes, very quickly and I coundn't rollback when I realize my
mistake. Anyway I hope, now, all users have a better experience .

Sadly this update is already pushed to stable, but next time: 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Minor_release_bumps_for_old_branches

or I suppose you could add an Epoch. I'd only suggest that if you are

wxGTK3 - drop down fields - text misplaced (Audacity)

2015-11-23 Thread David Timms
Hi any GTk3 or WxWidgets devs,

In Audacity (next), upstream has moved to wxGTK3. The only visible issue
I can see is with the placement of text within drop down fields.

The text is too low, and if it's too wide, the combo box isn't resizing
to fit the width. [1]

Just wondered if this is a problem with any other wxGTK3 using
applications, or any pointers in trying to nut out the cause would be
welcome ?

When updating my code for wxGTK3, there were some places where I had to 
add a Layout() call to my wxPanel after adding items to a wxChoice in 
order to get it to size correctly.  The same code worked just fine with 
GTK2, so I'm not sure whether I really should have had a Layout() call 
there in the first place.

There are MP3 decoders with patent licenses. But there is no F/OSS MP3
decoder with a patent license.

Fluendo's decoder is an example of a non-F/OSS decoder which has a
patent license. mgp123 is an example of a F/OSS decoder which has no
patent license. RPM Fusion can include either type of decoder (though I
think in practice it includes only the 'F/OSS but not patent licensed'
type), but Fedora can include neither.

Fluendo S.A  i.e the company.

You are mixing copyright and patent law. If you download the code and
compile it you don't have a license.
The binaries shipped by fluendo are proper licensed though.

 Nero licensing is another story, I'll admit. The restrictions on
 MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 use, declared at
 http://www.nero.com/enu/end-user-agreement.html, are fascinating: I
 assume that Nero has made a vaguely successful commercial agreeement
 for the licenses. But that's the first remotely valid license I've
 seen for Linux use of MPEG under USA patent reestrictions.

Nero licensing is another story, I'll admit. The restrictions on
MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 use, declared at
http://www.nero.com/enu/end-user-agreement.html, are fascinating: I
assume that Nero has made a vaguely successful commercial agreeement

 I think what you're looking for is the audacity-freeworld add-on

it is also FTBFS on F18 , but compiles if we use --without-ffmpeg

Hello, Everyone
I had been having a similar problem building Audacity on Fedora 18.
Following this advice:
 Audacity does not yet support building against later than 
 FFmpeg 0.7 or 0.8. 
 
 So if the system FFmpeg is 1.0.5 you will need to self-compile 
 FFmpeg 0.7 or 0.8 then link Audacity against that.

I have been able to successfully build Audacity from SVN on Fedora 18
WITH mp3 support.

Here is the entire email I received from the Audacity mailing list:

 From: g...@audacityteam.org
 To: Discussion list for Audacity users
 audacity-us...@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Audacity-users]
 Can't build Audacity from SVN on Fedora 18 Date: Mon, 01 Apr 2013
 00:12:18 +0100 Reply-To: audacity-us...@lists.sourceforge.net
 X-Mailer: Becky! ver. 2.64.06 [en] (Unregistered)
 
 
 Hi Steven,
 
 Audacity does not yet support building against later than 
 FFmpeg 0.7 or 0.8. 
 
 So if the system FFmpeg is 1.0.5 you will need to self-compile 
 FFmpeg 0.7 or 0.8 then link Audacity against that.
 
 Alternatively I think if you configure Audacity --without-ffmpeg
 to enable it to build you should still be able to export to FFmpeg
 formats using the Audacity command-line exporter. 
 
 To do this, choose (external program) when you export then 
 point Audacity to the appropriate .so file:
 http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/exporting_to_an_external_program.html .
 
 Command-line export supports any version of FFmpeg.

If they are non-responsive I was considering volunteering to take the
packages, not that I need any more, but I do occasionally use audacity.

The latest upstream version is 2.0.3 and uses a new resampling library by
default, libsoxr[1], which does not appear to be in Fedora yet.

Neither of which address the existing MP3 patent issues, only software
copyright issues. Mind you, Most of these patents are finally
expiring, and the existing court cases have been oddm and usually
settled out of court. But there's nothing in those licenses that
protects you from the existing patent claims of Alcatel-Lucent, or of
Texas MP3 Technologies, or those of a Japanese electronics firm I used

Since the Mayan apocalypse did not render the issue irrelevant (and

Thanks Frank,

I thought we did, acknowledging that we are a loose group of developers
throughout the globe. Is there a bit of code that I could possibly write
in? or Should I just go bother them?

Thanks again,
Richard

I think what you're looking for is the audacity-freeworld add-on package
from RPM Fusion, probably best to inquire there, although I think it was on
the FTBFS list for F19, but you may be OK for F18.

Please report that to RPMFusion. Not here. As have said before, Fedora does
not support mp3 files because is not free and some countries could be
prohibed by law.

Please contact with RPMfusion people.

Greetings!

besides the fact that it is pretty clear that MP3 is not supported
by a US distribution and this belongs to the users-list you find
such packages always in the rpmfusion-repos

[harry@srv-rhsoft:~]$ rpm -qa | grep audacity

MP3 players, and the DVD library libdvdcss, represent legal problems for US
developers. MP3 is patented, and there are *no* licenses available for
Linux environments.  libdvdcss runs into the protection of digital rights
software in the DMCA, and has even nastier legal protections on it for US
developers.

The result is that there are worldwide software repositories such as
rpmfusion for MP3, MP4, and a lot of other really useful software, and
freshrpms for the libdvdcss that are publicly available. *BUT* you need it
to be legal in the country you're downloading *to* to be able to use them
without threat of prosecution. There's also the Penguin Liberation Front
for a few components with weird licensing that others haven't been able to
resolve usable licenses for.

In order to use MP3 legally, I'm assuming you're in a country without that
bane of development everywhere, software patents, and can legally use
http://rpmfusion.org/. If so, enjoy

This is nonsense. There are enough licenses for the linux
environment. A lot of vendors have licensed MP3 en/decoders that work
on the linux. The point is that there is no licensed open source mp3
en/decoder.

Hi David:

Have you received an indication from anyone to do this? I would like to
help test it; how am I to get it off the site using Google-Chrome?

 ps. An ffmpeg  mp3 version should be ready @RPM Fusion in a few days.

No, actually. Although I thought I sent it to the test list but see now 
I sent to devel.

Looks like I built a scratch build, and the results have expired.
Since there has been more changes, I'll update and rebuild later today.

(I'll also send to test list instead.)

Cheers.
