[proaudio] musescore 0.8 and jack, plus an offtopic question

[Karel Volný <kavol@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am new to list, so please be patient with me :-) but looking at the archive, 
it does not seem that this exact issue was discussed ...

I was unable to succesfully compile musescore-0.8.0 because it depends on 
jack, even with jack USE flag disabled.

And I am not able to install jack-audio-connection-kit because the compilation 
fails on some mmx stuff (again, even with mmx flag disabled).

So I looked into the (c)makefiles and I came up with this simple workaround. 
The proper solution would be to add some configure-phase check for jack 
upstream, but 1) I am not so good in cmake stuff, 2) I do not have so much 
free time ... anybody feel free to take this opportunity and resolve the 
problem with the program author ;-)

See the attachment for the change within the ebuild. It works_for_me(tm).


BTW, can anybody point me to any WYSIWIG editor suitable for creating a 
songbook? - So that it should be able to cope with combining notes, guitar 
chord marks and lyrics, a lot of lyrics. The latter is the biggest problem 
when it comes to things like different number of syllables in second verse 
then in the first (for which there are notes), or formatting the text 
nicely ... I was hoping that the new KWord with the musical flake would be 
usable, but it does not seem so. Oh, and please do not tell me about MusiXTeX 
or so, for which a man spends a week learning before being able to typeset a 
simple page, I need this just a few times per year, so in between I'd forget 
anything I've learned about using it, a pure waste of time.

Regards,
K.
