listen-0.2.1.ebuild

Here's a "quick done" ebuild for listen.
Current problems are:
- ipod support will not work until a ebuild for python-gpod is created
- listen doesn't seem to like all my flac files :(

listen-0.2.1.ebuild

typo correction 

I've searched a little for the iPod support and discovered that 'python-gpod'
isn't a package: it's part of libgpod (in portage). The problem is that the
ebuild doesn't build and install the python bindings for libgpod. 
A solution would be to rework libgpod's ebuild but for the moment i can't
figure out how to do that...

There probably is still anything incorrect in the build:

I get following output after having emerged the ebuild and its dependencies -
listen itself is not starting:

saillord@swordfish ~ $ listenI

(In reply to comment #5)

maybe you miss python bindings for ogg:

* dev-python/pyogg
     Available versions:  !1.1 1.3 1.3-r1
     Installed:           1.3-r1
     Homepage:            http://www.andrewchatham.com/pyogg/
     Description:         Python bindings for the ogg library

if so, just tell me and i'll add it to $DEPEND

does listen really depend on dev-python/gnome-python-extras only when ipod use
flag is set? I guess it's a must have dependency as well as the following
two...

dev-python/pyvorbis
dev-python/imaging

listen-0.2.1-r1.ebuild

(In reply to comment #7)

You're right, dev-python/gnome-python-extras is a must have dependency.
You're right again about pyvorbis but since it depends on pyogg i've replaced
pyogg by pyvorbis in the ebuild, it should cover both dependencies.
I'm not sure about dev-python/imaging because it isn't installed on my system
and it doesn't seem to matter...

listen-0.4.2.ebuild

Version bump to 0.4.2
changes in ebuild:
-upgrade dep to >=dev-python/gst-python-0.10
-new dep: dev-python/ctypes for mp4 & m4a support
-correct needed versions of pysqlite and pygtk
-ebuild clean-up

There's still a bug in the ebuild: emerge it with FEATURES="-sandbox" else it
will fail (on a sandbox violation of course). I couldn't figure out what was
going on so if somebody knows how to fix this issue, please update the ebuild.  

I have some problem with this ebuild.
Listen 0.4.2 Complains in this mode, at startup:

File "/usr/bin/listen", line 144, in __init__ self.run() File
"/usr/bin/listen", line 265, in run self.player = Player(self.osd) File

PluginNotFoundError: goom

(In reply to comment #16)

You seem to miss some gstreamer visualiation plugins...
try to emerge : "media-libs/gst-plugins-good"

Tell me if it solves the issue: i'll add it to the deps.

Beno

Benoît, you are right.
After emerging "media-libs/gst-plugins-good" everything works fine.
You should add this packaeg to DEPEND flag.

Gian Luca

New strange things happen.

When I launch listen form the command line, I see a lot of errors.
It seems that gstreamer 0.10 in his base configuration misses a lot of plugins
needed by "listen" itself.

I added this packages those correct this behaviour:

gst-plugins-base
gst-plugins-gconf
gst-plugins-xvideo

Now, when I try to add a file or a folder, nothing happens. At command line I
obtain a message such as "$folder nothing to add".

The $folder is filled with Mp3... Am I missing some other plugins?

Gian Luca

(In reply to comment #19)
here'a list of the installed plugins on my sytem:

$ eix -I gst-plugins --compact

Try to install them one by one so that we can find out which ones are really
needed by "listen"

(In reply to comment #20)

Ok, Here I Am.

After emerge, unmerge I have the following list:

gst-plugins-base (Alsa and so on)
gst-plugins-cdparanoia (Support for CDParanoia)
gst-plugins-good (goom Codec needed)
gst-plugins-gconf (Used by Listen to read gstreamer configuration)
gst-plugins-mad (MP3 Support)
gst-plugin-ogg (Ogg container support)
gst-plugin-vorbis (Vorbis compression support)
gst-plugin-xvideo (Video Support)

With this package, I have Listen 0.4.2 running and reading music.

listen-0.4.2-r1.ebuild

fix problems with gtsreamer plugins according to comments #16 to #21
I also bumped all gstreamer's deps to >=0.10 beacause since listen is ~ARCH, i
think that it makes no sense to to stay with gtreamer-0.8 (if people disagrees,
just edit your local copy of the ebuild).

All needed plugins are now enabled by USE flags.
Available flags are now: "aac flac ipod mad vorbis"

There is a problem which I had with the application (not with ebuild). 
Do you have the same problems?
I proposed a patch to the listen bugzilla.

See

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1460063&group_id=161415&atid=819743

for informations and stay tuned ;)

listen-0.4.2-r2.ebuild (sandbox fix)

Corrects the sandbox issues referenced in comment #15

Quodlibet had the same issue, so I just copied the relevant part of its fix to
correct the issue.  Works for me anyway.

I just tried 0.4.2-r2 and it seems to be working beautifully.  I ended up
compiling the source first before I went searching for the ebuild, so I had
emerged all of the dependencies previously.  Thanks for putting this together,
I hope it makes it into portage soon.

Here are the errors I get when I run it, though they don't *seem* to be doing
any harm.

/usr/local/lib64/listen/main_window.py:105: GtkWarning: gtk_window_resize:
assertion `width > 0' failed
  try:
self.resize(int(config.get("window","width")),int(config.get("window","height")))
Introspect error: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by
any .service files
Gstplayer error: Resource not found. gstplaybasebin.c(1361): setup_source ():
/playbin0

This error occurs when emerging the latest ebuild. This is after getting past
the Sandbox errors others were having:
  ebuild.sh, line 1557:   Called dyn_compile
  ebuild.sh, line 966:   Called src_compile
Anyone else see this?

Well I ran into a snag on amd64.  I'm running into the problem where when I
close listen it doesn't actually kill the program.  If I run it from the
console I cant ctrl-c, but if I use the icon I setup I have to manually kill it
after finding its pid.

Running python-updater fixes this error.

Did you try unchecking the "minimize to system tray" and "close to system tray"
options in the preferences, especially if you aren't running Gnome?

io think that now it can be submitted to portage :)

now in portage, please test
if any problem reopen this bug

I performed a test and it seems to work ok, except it cannot detect my ipod. 
GTKPOD works fine, and I know kde wants to mount it through dbus/hald and does
so sucessfully.  Here is the error returned by listen when the ipod is mounted:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/listen/hal.py", line 80, in __volume_mounted_cb

Additionally, CD buring is dependent on serpentine.

serpentine added to "cdr" USE flag.

about your iPod problem i cannot reproduce it, it works here with my iPod using
udev 087 and hal 0.5.5.5.1-r3

Thanks on the serpentine dependency.  I found out my problem with the ipod.  I
needed to recompile gnome-vfs with the hal USE flag.

0.5 beta1 is out. any chanches to have an ebuild?
