Description mkm65535 2022-08-14 10:33:27 UTC 
media-sound/easyeffects searches for lsp-plugins in directory /usr/lib/lv2 on startup, but plugins actually reside in /usr/lib64/lv2.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
just try to startup easyeffects from terminal.
Actual Results:  
no lsp-plugin loaded.
so I cannot use equalizer on easyeffects.


creating simlink
# ln -s /usr/lib64/lv2 /usr/lib/lv2
solved the problem.
Comment 1 Marek Szuba archtester gentoo-dev 2022-08-20 22:33:14 UTC 
easyeffects does not attempt to load plug-ins from any specific directory - the media-libs/lilv API does that for it. LILV in turn looks for plug-ins in the directory specified by the environment variable LV2_PATH, which Gentoo ebuilds do set:

$ equery f media-libs/lilv | grep env
/etc/env.d/60lv2
$ cat /etc/env.d/60lv2
LV2_PATH=/usr/lib64/lv2

I'm sorry for bothering you, but there is no "/etc/env.d/60lv2" in my environment. media-libs/lilv-0.24.16 does not contain such a file.

I found https://bugs.gentoo.org/863428 and this seems appropriate place to report.
so you can igore this comment.
