Status of Jamulus integration in Linux distributions

[corrados]

This issue is basically just a list of URLs which relate to possible integrations of Jamulus in Linux distributions.

Several years ago, there was an attempt to include Jamulus in Redhat:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1118963
The CONFIG options "noupcasename" and "opus_shared_lib" were a result of it.

More recently, mirabilos did some work for including Jamulus in Debian:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=958146
We also have Jamulus Issues related to that, e.g., #100

It seems that there is a Jamulus package in OpenSuse available:
https://software.opensuse.org/package/Jamulus

If you know of other Linux distributions or have updated informations, please post them here.

Not a mainstream distribution, but one focused on music tools, jamulus is actually in its testing phase for LibraZiK. I'm waiting to finish the whole French translation to get it out of the testers repo and in the users repo.

ArchLinux (and any Arch based distro) has the latest version available in the AUR.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jamulus/

Just noticed the AUR has its own jamulus.desktop. Maybe the Linux distros could agree on a jamulus.desktop entry that can be included or have one generated that's distro-specific by the build process?

[trebmuh]

Yep, distros tend to do that from time to time. Sometimes with a very good reason, but usually not. Maybe someone can drop them a message about the existence of a upstream desktop file ?

Oh, after checking, I know the packager and will report that to him.

Hi all, Co-maintainer of AUR Archlinux package here.
just finishing to update the package in order to use upstream jamulus.desktop file.
Thanks a lot trebmuh and all of you guy for all that stuff ! :-)

It would be nice if the desktop file was installed by qmake, see #247 (comment), #247 (comment) and #247 (comment).

P.S. For cross-distro tracking there is https://repology.org/project/jamulus/versions.

[corrados]

Can you create a pull request for that? If not you, than anybody else?

[corrados]

BTW: The link in your post is pretty cool :-)

Edit: I have moved the link to the packaging status in the first post of this Issue.

[jtojnar]

Unfortuntaely, I will not be able to open a PR anytime soon.

[corrados]

@jtojnar atsampson was so kind to do the implementation and the new code is already merged to the Git master. Do you have the possibility to check if the implementation works as you requested?

For NixOs/Nix there's a package on master (but not in any of the stable releases currently)

As said in #439, jamulus 3.5.6 is now officially in the LibraZiK-3 users repo.
