Hi,
Pianoteq is one of the few commmercial music software packages that are
available also for the Linux platform. And I find it worth paying for and
have been enjoying my Licence since Pianoteq version 3.
But since my update to Fedora 22 I have some mysterious problems running
Pianoteq 5 from the commandline. (No such problems I think on Fedora 21).
I am using 64 bits Fedora 22. The problems only occur if I run the 64 bits
Pianoteq binary. I have also some 32 bits libraries installed on my
system. If I run the 32 bits version of Pianoteq on my system, the
problems don't seem to occur. There is a demo version available on
www.pianoteq.com if you want to try Pianoteq. I am especially interested
if other Fedora 22 users are able to reproduce my issues. Or if people
still using Fedora 21 or older don't see these problems happening.
If there really is a problem with Fedora 22 I would like to find what
exactly goes wrong, so that I can send a bug report to the right place.
Until now this is a big mystery for me.
