Package: libwxgtk2.8-0 Version: 2.8.12.1+dfsg2-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have been having an issue with official builds of wxWidgets on Debian-based systems for a couple years now. The wxSound object does not work. It does not produce any audio output. I don't see any error output when building an app using the module nor when it is used at runtime. The bug only seems to affect Debian-based systems. Namely, I have tested it on Debian, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint, on none of which it works. I have also tested builds on non-Debian systems; Fedora, FreeBSD, Windows XP, and Windows 7. On all of these systems the wxSound module works fine. To further investigate the problem I custom built wxWidgets on my Debian system using source from http://www.wxwidgets.org/. Running binaries produced with the Debian build and custom build successfully executed the wxSound module when linked to the custom libs. For these reasons I believe that there is an error in the official Debian build of wxWidgets's shared libs: - Only Debian-based systems are affected. - A custom build of wxWidgets (wxGtk) produces a working wxSound module. For reference, the build command/options that I used follow: ../configure --enable-shared --enable-unicode --disable-gtktest \ --disable-sdltest --with-gtk --with-sdl --with-opengl \ --with-gnomeprint --with-gnomevfs I am unsure if current builds of the newer libwxgtk3.0-0 share this same bug. The project for which I am using wxWidgets and wxSound is located here for reference as well: https://sourceforge.net/projects/myabcs -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libwxgtk2.8-0 depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libexpat1 2.1.0-6+b3 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.2 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-2 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.2-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+b1 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 10.3.2-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1 ii libglu1-mesa [libglu1] 9.0.0-2 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-1 ii libjpeg8 8d1-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpng12-0 1.2.50-2+b1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1 ii libstdc++6 4.9.2-2 ii libtiff5 4.0.3-10+b3 ii libwxbase2.8-0 2.8.12.1+dfsg2-2 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.1.3-1+b1 ii multiarch-support 2.19-13 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2 libwxgtk2.8-0 recommends no packages. libwxgtk2.8-0 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
