forwarded 430833 alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- On Wed, 27 Jun 2007 the mental interface of Mark Wooding told: > Package: libasound2 > Version: 1.0.14a-1 > Severity: normal > Tags: patch > > The PCM plugin `lfloat' isn't compiled into libasound. In particular, > this prevents the `plug' plugin from doing linear<->float conversion, > and in turn this means that hardly any ALSA clients can use the JACK > plugin from libasound2-plugins, because JACK uses FLOAT_LE format > throughout. > > The reason for this is quite simple: the configure script is broken! In > particular, the sense of the `softfloat' check used to decide whether to > disable the plugin is wrong! (That's aside from the question of whether > it's sensible to fail to build the thing just because it might be slow.) > We should solve this in general. It's not a Debian specific wish so forwarded upstream. > > Index: alsa-lib-1.0.14a/configure.in > =================================================================== > --- alsa-lib-1.0.14a.orig/configure.in 2007-06-27 16:24:58.000000000 > +0100 > +++ alsa-lib-1.0.14a/configure.in 2007-06-27 16:25:19.000000000 > +0100 > @@ -416,7 +416,7 @@ > build_pcm_share="no" > fi > > -if test "$softfloat" != "yes"; then > +if test "$softfloat" = "yes"; then > build_pcm_lfloat="no" > fi > > Index: alsa-lib-1.0.14a/configure > =================================================================== > --- alsa-lib-1.0.14a.orig/configure 2007-06-27 16:25:23.000000000 > +0100 > +++ alsa-lib-1.0.14a/configure 2007-06-27 16:25:38.000000000 +0100 > @@ -20946,7 +20946,7 @@ > build_pcm_share="no" > fi > > -if test "$softfloat" != "yes"; then > +if test "$softfloat" = "yes"; then > build_pcm_lfloat="no" > fi > > Elimar -- Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it! _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
