1 Hi. I'm "the other one" that is making some commits to the kde-sunset
2 overlay. Sorry for some messes ^^;
3
4 I use kde3 (sunset) on my notebook, while using kde4 on my desktop pc (even
5 if I'm very tempted to switch to something more useful - just now it's
6 "Konqueror & bloat DE" for me)
7
8 During last notebook update, I ended on the infamous "libmp4v2 frack-up"
9 problem.
10
11 Namely:
12 make[6]: *** [mp4tag.lo] Error 1
13 make[6]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
14 mp4file.cpp: In member function 'virtual bool TagLib::MP4::File::save()':
15 mp4file.cpp:110:121: error: 'MP4GetMetadataCompilation' was not declared in
16 this scope
17 (and so on)
18
19 I found this problem is related to libmp4v2, which changed API | ABI and
20 then some programs stopped compile.
21 Here an example with mediatomb.
22 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410235
23 There is a patch for Mediatomb in there.
24 Probably translating that patch to amarok may do the trick, but for now, I
25 don't have the actual time to (well, acquire c++ knowledge to and) make
26 that patch. Sorry for that.
27
28 I know there are some patches/ebuilds for kde-sunset that aren't in the
29 tree, and I'm trying to do my best to get anything I get to the tree. So,
30 in case there is someone who already made a patch for this, or someone who
31 is willing to make one even, can you reply to this? Thank you.
