Hello, I want to highlight this bug, even if many probably know it, because it is absolutely to avoid in a sound machine. In another thread " ardour3 on debian stable" [1]: > Unpacking ardour3 (from ardour3_3.5.74~dfsg-1_i386.deb) ... > dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ardour3: > [...] > ardour3 depends on libc6 (>= 2.17); however: Some libraries employed by ardour (for example rubberband, vamp-sdk and qm-dsp) use sin|cos|exp from `libm'. There is a degradation of the performance (3:1 in my code for sound synthesis) caused by a bug in glibc 2.17 (more info here [2]). Some distros are updated (for example fedora [3]) but in some cases, one is the last slackware 14.1, it is necessary to recompile the sources after the application of the patch. For debian users: I don't see the patch in 2.17-97 [4].
