Package: python-pygame
Version: 1.7.1release-4.1
Severity: normal
Judging by the following test I presume that pygame, in certain
circumstances, uses timidity to play MIDI files. So a dependency on
timidity or a note about that fact somewhere in the documentation would
be welcomed.
Without the package timidity installed:
$ file file.MID
file.MID: Standard MIDI data (format 1) using 9 tracks at 1/480
$ python -c "import pygame; pygame.init();
pygame.mixer.music.load('file.MID')"
open /dev/sequencer: No such file or directory
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in ?
pygame.error: /etc/timidity/timidity.cfg: No such file or directory
With timidity installed:
$ python -c "import pygame; pygame.init();
pygame.mixer.music.load('file.MID')"
