Haven't tried to use it together with media-sound/mpd yet, but as it is now it isn't very useful. A default /etc/wildmidi.cfg should probably be installed, but the sources don't provide one, our ebuild doesn't provide one and the code is written in such a way that it doesn't write a nominal one itself when it needs to, and bails out: jeroen@elmer /keeps/gentoo/samplefiles $ wildmidi FourHorsemen.mid WildMidi 0.2.3.4 Open Source Midi Sequencer Copyright (C) Chris Ison 2001-2010 wildcode@users.sourceforge.net WildMidi comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under the terms and conditions of the GNU General Public License version 3.

Jeroen, can you please try to touch /etc/wildmidi.cfg and see if it works for you? The package is not *yet* in sound herd as I didn't talk to them about this yet

Anyway, an empty cfg file makes wildmidi run, but I get no sound output, not even when I write to a WAV file. Audacity shows flat lines for each stereo channel.

Please reopen this bug if -r1 doesn't work for you Please note that you need to keyword media-sound/timidity-freepats as well (have updated bug #333941) Thanks +*wildmidi-0.2.3.4-r1 (26 Aug 2010) + + 26 Aug 2010; Markos Chandras <hwoarang@gentoo.org> + +wildmidi-0.2.3.4-r1.ebuild, +files/wildmidi.cfg: + Depend on timidity-freepats.
