Please, add this package to portage. From the homepage: http://abc.sourceforge.net/abcMIDI/ abcMIDI is a package of programs developed by James Allwright for processing ABC music notation files. It consists of several programs: abc2midi, abc2abc, yaps, and midi2abc. abc2midi is probably the most advanced program for creating MIDI files from ABC files. It contains special features, such as handling multivoiced files, expanding guitar chords into bass chordal accompaniment, transposing individual voices, and adding percussion accompaniment. All the MIDI files on Aubrey Jaffer's web site were created from ABC files using this program. abc2abc is a useful utility for reformating ABC files, checking the syntax, transposing to another key, extracting particular voice lines, updating the chords or slur notation and for other functions. yaps converts an ABC music file into a PostScript file containing the common music notation. The source code in this program is not a clone of abc2ps (the original ABC to PostScript conversion application) and takes an independent approach. Midi2abc is another useful program included with this package. It produces an ABC file from a MIDI file. In some circumstances the resulting ABC file is not particularly easy to read, but it is a fairly accurate representation of the MIDI file. This program is also useful for debugging abc2midi when the output file does not sound quite right (which may happen with multivoiced ABC files). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 47100 [details] abcmidi-2004.12.18.ebuild This is my ebuild for abcMIDI.
Created attachment 47107 [details] abcmidi-2004.12.18.ebuild This ebuild also installs the demo.abc file, which has been forgot in the prior ebuild. I am installing demo.abc with the dodoc command, and it gets automatically compressed to demo.abc.gz, although I think this is not desirable.
Nice! This one also builds just fine when the version is bumped to 2005.04.04 ! Why is it not in portage?
Hi! I just wanted to add this package also to Gentoo... but I tought I should search for it....and voili, here it is. But again, WHY isn't this added? media-sound/apcm2ps is added, so why not add abcMIDI as well? I attached my ebuild also, it might not be correct, since I'm just starting to use gentoo, but it is fresher.
Created attachment 74929 [details] abcMIDI-20051215.ebuild
Created attachment 75103 [details] abcmidi-2005.12.17.ebuild And here is my ebuild for the latest version of abcMIDI.
(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) 'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached to this bug. This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the main tree. Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.
