Suggesting new package for Ubuntu Studio
 

Hi,

I'm not sure what would be the right channel for this so I'm posting it
here. Please redirect me to the right place if this is not the one.

I would like to make a suggestion for a new package to Ubuntu Studio.
Rakarrak ( http://rakarrack.sourceforge.net/ ) is a excellent guitar
effects system. I've been using the version 0.1.2 and really love it.
Moreover it just got updated when 0.2.0 was released. As soon as I
finish this email I'm going to compile and test it out.

Best regards:
Beepo

The ubuntu-studio-devel ML is the best place for things like this. :)

Since there doesn't look to be a package in Debian nor Ubuntu it will
need to be packaged. We have a set number of things to work on this
release so the team does not plan to handle this. *If* it shows up in
the archive we can take it from there.

Here's a deb:
ftp://musix.ourproject.org/pub/musix/deb/rakarrack_0.1.2-1_i386.deb


I downloaded from there today.* Rakarrack works REALLY well.* Much better, IMO, than jack-rack.

Rackarack is important - fast evolving, very useful software that fills
a gap. It is not perfect though: has no LADSPA-Interface and no
Amp-simulation but it could easily have it with the next release and the
next release can be there in some 2-3 months.

So not to have it in Ubuntustudio (where it can be build easily with
onboard dev packages) would not be wise...

Has nothing to do with being wise. It has everything to do with manpower
and time.

Anyone who wants to learn how to package is welcome to join
#ubuntustudio-devel and we'll point you in the right directions.

It needs a maintainer. If this is something you feel you could do then
this is probably a good start:

http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/

For now it is easy enough to get and build it ourselves.

I spent some time looking at it this afternoon. This would be a good
package for someone to cut their teeth on. Follow the guide above and
use rakarrack instead of their example package, it is not that hard and
there do not appear to be any weird complications.

OK, I officially volunteer to do this.* What's the next step after I package it?

Hi and thanks for the discussion / information about the packaging. I'll
try to take a look at the packaging instructions and maybe I'll be able
to cook something up. I'll let you know soon :)

Best Regards:

Actually looks like one of our guys had the time so stick around. If it
gets into the archive we'll post a note.
