Re: [proaudio] Updating ebuilds for qt4 deps moving from x11-libs to dev-qt

[Karl Lindén <spray.sucks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

hydrogen-0.9.5.1 does not install any files into /usr/lib. I don't
think it should be any different if I toggle USE flags, but I'll
mention my USE flag configuratiuon anyhow:
-alsa +archive -debug +jack +ladspa +lash -oss -portaudio
I don't see any reason why the USE flags should make anything
different, but I might be mistaking.

I have had the "lash.h error not found" before. Because I use ladish I
asked Nedko about it and it got fixed pretty fast. If you use the old
LASH the situation is most likely a little different. If we want to
make Hydrogen compile against LASH we might add a patch to fix the
include (I assume it is an inclusion problem).

About the long list of errors. The errors arise from bad keywording
which is a pretty nasty little problem. Because Hydrogen depends on
virtual/liblash we get warnings because hydrogen-0.9.5.1 is marked as
stable for amd64 ppc ppc64 x86 whereas liblash is unstable for amd64
ppc and x86 (it is not even keyworded for ppc64). To solve this we
either mark liblash as stable for all those architectures but then
there has to be ebuilds satisfying media-sound/lash-original and
media-sound/ladish with those particular keywords or we mark Hydrogen
as unstable.

These keywording problems are very nasty in the way that ebuilds in
the overlay are usually depending on ebuilds from the portage tree. I,
for example, tried to get rid of some warnings a time ago. See
r2433-r2437. This moved warnings from ZynAddSubFX to
media-libs/libffado, but the solution is not very clean because our
ebuilds still generate warnings.

Karl
