# Cinelerra is too broken to be fixed
media-video/cinelerra

Use media-video/cinelerra-cvs.
Comment 2 Gerry 2005-09-13 18:11:05 UTC
What's broken about it, exactly ?  The comment in the mask file doesn't say. 
Others seem able to use Cinelerra, so there must be some way of getting it to work ?
Comment 3 Milosz Kosobucki 2005-09-14 11:10:43 UTC
Hmm, I think that new version of cinelerra is something diffrent than 1.x
version and it should be stable. Maybe just Mark only <media-video/cinelerra-2.0
as masked.
Comment 4 Milosz Kosobucki 2005-09-14 21:40:23 UTC
Oh, and I forgot to say that the new version comes from the "suggested" CVS branch.
Comment 5 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2005-09-15 03:17:27 UTC
The main problem with cinelerra non cvs is the fact it doesn't work on ppc and
that has a quite itchy build system. (the main problem is that it doesn't error
out on compiler faults and other minor issues)

I'll check the 2.0 and hopefully someone will keep the cinelerra-cvs up do date
just in case.
Comment 6 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2005-09-15 06:56:17 UTC
Tested, it doesn't build at least on a first try on x86 and I'm afraid it won't
build correctly on ppc.

For now marked as LATER

Hopefully I'll update the cinelerra-cvs ebuild once the 2.0 interesting bits
will be backported.
Comment 7 Gerry 2005-09-15 19:46:46 UTC
Okay, thanks for answering.  The current cinelerra-cvs in portage (20050801)
fails with a sandbox violation, btw (see bug #103534)
Comment 8 Stefan de Konink 2005-10-05 08:13:19 UTC
I tested x264 lib (svn) and cinelerra-cvs from cvs both compiled without
problems. Though visualisation must be disabled in x264.

Comment 11 Milosz Kosobucki 2005-12-30 15:06:59 UTC
I tried compiling cinelerra 2.0.0 but it has also failed. But the build system told me what was it going about :

 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I/usr/local/include -I../utils -DLAVPLAY_VERSION=\"1.6.3-rc1\" -I/usr/local/src/jpeg-mmx -I/usr/include/lqt -march=athlon-4 -mno-sse2 -mcpu=athlon-4 -I/home/mikom/cinelerra-2.0/alsa-lib-1.0.8/include -L/home/mikom/cinelerra-2.0/alsa-lib-1.0.8/i686 -pthread -Wall -Wunused -MT liblavfile_la-lav_io.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/liblavfile_la-lav_io.Tpo -c lav_io.c -o liblavfile_la-lav_io.o`-mcpu=' is deprecated. Use `-mtune=' or '-march=' instead.
lav_io.c:39:23: quicktime.h: No such file or directory
In file included from /usr/include/lqt/lqt.h:5,
                 from lav_io.c:40:

So, maybe after resolving some library issues it might be useable. I would like to see it so because the latest cvs version seem to be screwed (constant crashes).
Comment 12 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2005-12-30 15:53:43 UTC
No, I won't touch cinelerra, is a waste of time trying to make it build and the cinelerra-cvs fork works better and has a sane build system.

Once cinelerra has a proper release and a clean codebase I'll might consider adding it back, I'm sorry but I wasted too much time on it already.
