I gave up on debian packaging some time ago, for practical reasons. If I would make a political statement I would not be using Linux Mint, but then that's what I use > what gives kxstudio ain't working for you? For years I ran homemade Linux systems, spun from LFS and BLFS, both at home and at work. My first encounter with Linux and audio, Muse, was on a BLFS-derived system. Now, I run Linux Mint for years, doing music. Before that I ran CCRMA for years then a Fedora problem occurred in upgrading. So I do other things than going about distros for quite some time. I do not need repos, all Linux audio software I use is commercial, even Zynaddsubfx which falls in that category since I paid for it. OTOH, I like to try from time to time other software. The Calf plugins once a year to see what they're about for instance. Last time I noticed some distortion in their dynamic compressor, so it's on the shelf for later on this year. When I saw your announce of the synthsv1 I thought about trying them. So now that the rpm is opened and files copied in /usr/lib/ and /usr/lib/lv2/ the plugin will not start in Mixbus32C (Ardour). So from the command line I see that unfortunately Linux Mint 18 doe snot have the proper Qt version as it runs 5.6.1 while synthv1 requires 5.10: % ./synthv1_jack ./synthv1_jack: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10' not found (required by ./synthv1_jack) ./synthv1_jack: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10' not found (required by /usr/lib/libsynthv1.so.0) ./synthv1_jack: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.10' not found (required by /usr/lib/libsynthv1_ui.so.0) So I think I'll forget about that. Maybe in a couple of years when and if the stars aligns ... :) Cheers. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
