I don't use deb-multimedia anymore, since it was the cause of a lot of problems when trying to upgrade from wheezy to jessie, well... maybe I could use it once to get libdvdcss2 package only and nothing more!stevepusser wrote:A better question would be to ask why deb-multimedia continues putting out a version of ffmpeg and vlc that could break user's media systems.

Debian has a package that downloads source, builds, and installs the very latest libdvdcss2 deb, so you really don't need DMO for that, either: https://packages.debian.org/search?keyw ... ection=all

Updated ffmpeg to 3.2.6 for both Jessie and Stretch. This might get DVD Styler and gimp-edge built on Stretch; for some mysterious reason it kept saying it could not find ffmpeg in the standard Stretch repos that it uses when creating the virtual build environment.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
Updating gimp-edge development versions to 2.9.117. This requires a newer version of libglib2.0 for Jessie to build, so I added the sources from jessie-backports for its 2.48 version. Also got the new gimp building on the Stretch platform, so let's see if it finishes.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
Did a little trick with the build-depends for SMTube so it builds against Qt 5 if it's >= 5.6, which is the first version to support HDPI, and Qt 4 otherwise. So that means that Jessie gets Qt 4, Stretch get the Qt 5. The alternatives in the build-depends are:
Trying the same thing with smplayer.
Edit: SMPlayer was a little tougher--had to add a bit of code that detected if it was building on Stretch, and then only export a qtchooser qt5 environment setting if that was true. I suppose that it could also detect sid and buster, plus the various Ubuntu codenames, but I'm not building for those.
Code: Select all
qt5-default (>= 5.6) | libqt4-dev (>= 4.6),
libqt5webkit5-dev (>= 5.6) | libqtwebkit-dev,
qttools5-dev-tools (>= 5.6) | libqt4-dev (>= 4.6),
qtscript5-dev (>= 5.6) | libqt4-dev (>= 4.6)

Just uploaded the SMPlayer 17.7.0 source files, so it will take a few minutes to build and publish the updated packages.

Have you thought about Lollypop music player? It is nice and lean, it is also a GPL3 based project
I would exchange everything I know in exchange for half of what I don't.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
I actually tried a build on my own Jessie base yesterday of Lollypop, but when I ran it, it failed with an error message that it needed GTK+3 3.20 minimum (though the docs say 3.14). I could put up a Stretch build, though.
Update: OK, Stretch build of Lollypop 0.9.242 is in the repo--it seems to work OK in a Stretch virtual machine I have.
Update 2: Looks like the PPA I got the sources from missed a dependency, gir1.2-soup-2.4, so uploaded a fixed version.

Added youtube-dlg 0.4 (youtube-dl GUI).
Added the new Inkscape 0.92.2 release...it's maintained by the Debian Multimedia Team, so I'm using that as justification to include it as a multimedia package: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show ... t/inkscape

Ffmpeg upgraded to 3.3.3 for Jessie and Stretch. Due to some quirk restricted to Stretch in the OBS, that build does not support chromaprint audio fingerprinting--I had to disable it. All packages that build upon ffmpeg were automatically and successfully rebuilt.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
The development version gimp-2.9.5~151 added for Jessie and Stretch, but also added gimp dev version 2.9.6 for Stretch only, so that's what those users will get by default. A build-depend on libpng-dev >= 1.6 prevents 2.9.6 from being backported to Jessie, since that breaks the Jessie libpng-dev needed by many other build-deps.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
Hmmm..the 2.9.7~1 version from the gimp-edge PPA sources didn't have any trouble building on Jessie, so that's also now in the repos.
Later: had to remove the older gegl and babl packages to unconfuse the OBS and fix the install of GIMP 2.7~, but it's good now.

Re: Hah! Who needs PPAs? I have my own multimedia+ repo!
Just a notice, the download and publishing infrastructure for the OBS has been down since at least yesterday...suddenly there are people asking questions about some of my packages that I never knew anybody was using, such as KeepassXC.
