Hello, I have been trying to port Miro (formerly Democracy) for some time. This application is very interesting: e.g. it lets you watch videos from Youtube or Dailymotion without a flash plug-in.
My port is available from <http://people.freebsd.org/~thierry/ports/Miro-1.0.tgz>. I builds and installs fine, and runs OK on some machines but fails (Python core dumps) on some others. I have tried to find differences between a working machine and a failing one, without success! However, I've noticed that build scripts are different, even if both of them produce the same files: - when the resulting installation is OK, the build begins with Compiling 'playlisttab' template to /usr/ports/multimedia/miro/work/Miro-1.0/resources/../portable/compiled_templates/playlisttab.py - when it is not, the build begins with Compiling 'new' template to /usr/ports/multimedia/miro/work/Miro-1.0/resources/../portable/compiled_templates/new.py but I don't understand what causes this difference! N.B.: - there is no impact from py25-setuptools; - tried with -vv, but that did not give me any clue; - building in a tinderbox produces a failing application, then I guess that some dependency or some environment variable is missing; - if you want to give it a try: it is quick to build, but requires many dependences (add them as packages if needed). Thanks! -- Th. Thomas.
