** Description changed:
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ geonkick's build system, by default is installing the lv2 plugin to the
+ wrong directory (/usr/lib/${ARCH}/lv2 as opposed to the canonical
+ /usr/lib/lv2). This is causing applications that use lv2 plugins such as
+ ardour and carla to not find this plugin.
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ * Install geonkick
+ * Install carla
+ * Look for geonkick in carla, it will not be found.
+
+ [ Where Problems Could Occur ]
+
+ As this is a packaging error and, quite possibly, an upstream install
+ error (or intentional), it might install to the wrong directory for
+ applications that look for the architecture-specific directory, but this
+ is unlikely in Ubuntu and Debian appplications as the architecture-
+ specific directory is not canonical for lv2 plugins.
+
+ [ Other Information ]
+
+ Original bug report follows:
+
geonkick installed the lv2 plugin in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lv2
as shown by :
dpkg -L geonkick
/.
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/geonkick
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lv2
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lv2/geonkick.lv2
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lv2/geonkick.lv2/geonkick.ttl

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lv2/geonkick.lv2/manifest.ttl
lv2 hosts like ardour, carla etc, can't find the lv2 plugin
