For jack-audio-connection-kist to go in, assuming nothing is removed, a lot of stuff *still* has to happen first.
I'm going to draw this as a dependency tree, where under each item are the items which need to happen first. ==> hint jack-audio-connection-kit/0.75.0-2 alsa-lib/0.9.8-2 ladcca/0.4.0-1 ==> Build gem 0.87cvs20031021-1.1 on all arches ==> Build linux-kernel-headers on alpha, hppa, ia64, s390 ==> Get puredata 0.37.cvs-10/s390 (built) into the pool ==> Build ecasound2.2/2.3.1-1 on arm, sparc, m68k, s390 ==> Get python2.3/2.3.3-4 compiled on arm, sparc, m68k, s390 ==> Fix fftw3 build bug #225960 ---- If you want to get jack-audio-connection-kit in *today*, on the other hand, I believe you have to do the following. I checked and there don't seem to be any packages depending on the packages I suggest removing, so this should work. # This needs new linux-kernel-headers before building. remove gem/0.87-5.2 # These two depend on ecasound2.2, which waits for python2.3. remove ecamegapedal/0.4.1-3 remove ecawave/1:0.6.0-6 # This depends on fftw3, which still needs work remove freqtweak/0.4.8-1 # It looks like if these three libraries go in, everything else # will become installable, even puredata and pd-externals. hint jack-audio-connection-kit/0.75.0-2 alsa-lib/0.9.8-2 ladcca/0.4.0-1 This is almost certainly worth it, given the sheer number of packages waiting for alsa-lib and jack-audio-connection-kit (including significant parts of GNOME and KDE). -- Nathanael Nerode <neroden at gcc.gnu.org> http://home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/fdl.html
