bmpx-svn

bmpx is a music player written completely from scratch, aiming to replace the now-dead bmp. Here's a PKGBUILD for svn:

Moved to AUR: bmpx-svn

Changelog

· 2005-10-07 : Removed the 'touch ~/.subversion' part -- unneeded, and brakes build if you haven't ran svn before
· 2005-10-07 : Added curl dependency, and a command to put the bmp-xchat.py script somewhere reachable
· 2005-10-07 : No longer replaces bmp, as it is not the case yet.
· 2005-10-28 : Added libhrel dependency & libhrel-svn PKGBUILD, thanks josephmc
· 2005-10-28 : small fixes in libhrel PKGBUILD
· 2005-10-30 : libhrel is not needed as a seperate package any more.
· 2005-11-08 : Updated and posted in AUR.

OI! Thunder stealer! This is my baby! I was waiting to release it until libtool slay and gcc were finished! I knew someone would jump the gun!

stavrosg · 2005-09-29 18:26:33

well bmpx is going to be renamed to bmp anyway (or so I hear) so it is going to remain your baby anyway. ;-)

-S.

dtw · 2005-09-29 20:14:12

nice PKGBUILD by the way

shadowhand · 2005-09-29 20:36:25

It looks sexy. Too bad I don't use Testing....

Hehe I just realized the guy who takes all the screenshots uses WindowMaker. That's funny to me.

dtw · 2005-09-29 20:37:02

Bummer, eh?

/me shakes fist at devs

jesus franco · 2005-09-29 22:55:04

Thank you very much for that pkgbuild! BMP-X doesn't build on my gentoo box or lfs...

But it does in arch
It's a real nice program, nice to developers making use of cairo

Hehe, thanks!
That page in the wiki helped a lot.
I wonder who wrote it. 8)

Anyone knows if it is possible to let the window manager do the window handling of bmpx (if no titlebar is used), as it plays not nice with fvwm...

Hm, intresting.

It doesn't play well with XFCE as well, as I've stated on the first message.
I will report it to the developers and we'll see what happens...

We could use some help though. At least:
- A short explanation of the peroblem
- a screenshot would be handy
- the output of bmpx --version

pressh · 2005-10-07 09:47:41

First of all, a screenshot is not really possible, as the problem only applies when moving the window.

Secondly, the output of bmpx --version:

bmpx 0.12-RC3, Build: 2005-10-06-R316 [Thu Oct  6 23:29:30 CEST 2005] (pressh@pressh)

Features built: 
* X11 Session Management
* D-BUS Support
* Audio backend: XINE

Short explanation:
When using the NoTitle option in FVWM (hence, no titlebar) the app does not follow the mouse for the first three seconds, After this a beeb, and the app follows mouse movement. This problem doesn't exist when I add a titlebar and move using this titlebar. Probably the problem exists because bmpx tries to do it's own window movement

the PKGBUILD doesn't work for me with this line:
touch ~/.subversion
had to change it to:
mkdir ~/.subversion

What is the error message you get when using touch ~/.subversion ??
Normally it should work, so...

You cannot simply change touch to mkdir in the PKGBUILD as this could give problems when you recompile the package (because ~/.subversion exists).

I seem to be able to produce this error when running makepkg as a user using fakeroot.
So probably this is what you're doing...
Running makepkg as root should solve the problem

ivi3 · 2005-10-07 13:17:14

No, I'am running makepkg as root.

And I can't understand why "touch ~/.subversion" should work, because it is creating a file .subversion instead of a dir .subversion/ which is needed by svn?!

greetings
Mathias

pressh · 2005-10-07 13:26:20

You got a point. Then that directory should be made by subversion itself. What happens if you just delete the 'touch' line ?

On my machine it just creates the dir, and builds as should.

stavrosg · 2005-10-07 14:02:55

I got this from the wiki, where it probably remained from earlier days where ~/.subversion was a file, not a directory. I removed it since you say it works fine without it.

ivi3 · 2005-10-07 14:03:24

You're right. Didn't check if svn creates the dir by itself.

By the way bmpx looks nice but I'll stay by cplay cause I'm using wmii and xmms-like players aren't good to handle under this wm. But I'll tell my friends about it so more people will test it.

greetings
Mathias

Thanks! And please, come by #bmp in freenode to report the problems just to have a chance to be fixed sooner than later ;-)

dtw · 2005-10-07 16:05:32

Christ I've been asleep - when did they switch to SVN? No wonder my PKGBUILD stopped working! I made it ages ago for CVS...

Have updated the wiki after the above discussion By the way, if anyone wants to work with versionpkg to get it to check CVS updates (same is currently detects tag updates for svn now), go for it

stavrosg · 2005-10-07 19:11:19

Thanks pholie, I've updated the PKGBUILD.

I've also added a command to put put an announce script for xchat in /usr/share/bmpx instead of leaving it behind, unused.
You can copy it in your ~/.xchat2 and use it , but please don't spam #archlinux with it ;-)
There is a ./configure option --with-xchat , but that puts it into /usr/lib/xchat/plugins and I didn't really wanted to put it there. You can use it if you like, though

-S.

PS: Probably I'll make a repo soon, so a binary package should be available soon.

Snowman · 2005-10-07 19:23:57

Maybe stavrosg has already verified that, but it's possible that the curl dependency is a makedepends instead of a depends. I haven't tried the PKGBUILD so I can't be sure.
