Bug#156614: cinelerra update
Hello people interested/involved in hvirtual's stuff...
I've made some progress with packaging cinelerra and thought I'd drop
everyone a note.
I've placed my current work so far at
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~fu1/debian/cinelerra
Its not apt-gettable but I'm sure you can manage :)
Feedback, testing, critism are welcome!
Here's the README that I wrote for that dir:
-----
Here is a dump of the work I've done doing on cinelerra.
Some notes:
* The quicktime lib is just thrown together to get the dependency, I
am not the official maintainer nor is it really finished upstream.
The package is just a cvs snapshot thrown together really fast.
* The libmpeg3 library still needs to be packaged from this source
tree and then linked by cinelerra. Should be fairly straightforward
with just an extra -L in a Makefile for cinelerra(& xmovie)...
* CSS sources have to be stripped out before this is suitable for debian.
* I've started porting cinelerra to use the libsndfile1 API since v0 is
deprecated and no longer in sid. Its not hard, we just need to test
some of the cases to make sure I understood the flag stuff right...
Perhaps someone more familiar with libsndfile can lend a pair of eyes?
* The diff is overly big due to the html stuff being regenerated. I
don't remember doing this by hand. It certainly wasn't
intentional, so please diregard all of the diff lines going from
<H2> -> <H3> etc..
* Ugliness in version numbers. For instance, xmovie was previously
version 1.9, but is now only versioned by the source tarball(1.0).
Also, the libmpeg3 build doesn't specify anything for what its
soname should be nowadays...
* I haven't really spent much time on the [build-] depends. I did a
real quick list, but its probably not complete.
Enjoy!
