Description Martin Erdtmann 2012-11-23 12:19:56 UTC

After upgrading Ardour-2.8.12 to Ardour-2.8.14 all lv2 plugins in the /usr/lib/lv2/* folder become invisible in the Ardour GUI. After downgrading to Ardour-2.8.12 everything works as before.
It seems to be that the lv2 useflag does not work for any reason.

Thanks a lot for taking care of this.

Hi Martin, thanks for reporting this!

ardour-2.8.14 needs media-libs/lilv and media-libs/suil for lv2 plugins to work.
I would have revbumped the ebuild with corrected deps, but lilv isn't keyworded on ppc right now and that would probably break their setup (I can't test that myself). See bug 444496.

So if you want to get the plugins immediately and don't wait for the other bug, just emerge lilv and suil and rebuild ardour.

Ok, I committed -r1 and dropped the ppc keyword for now. Thanks Tim Harder for the advice.

As this bug is still valid on ppc, I leave it open...

Thank you! This shows me that gentoo has a great community. I will test it now.

Ardour-2.8.14 works not with lv2 support. Thanks a lot.
