musescore version 4.0 was released several days ago: https://musescore.org/en/4.0 Thanks a lot!
I managed to get it compiled and running by: 0. using 9999 ebuild (copy to musescore-4.0.ebuild in local portage tree) 1. disabling jack use flag (compilation error) (might be related to point 2.) 2. disabling precompiled header (commenting -DBUILD_PCH=OFF) (compilation errors aknowledged upstream) 3. disabling audio exports (conflict when installing because of embedded 3rd party libraries that I wasn't able to say "use system library") (adding -DENABLE_AUDIO_EXPORT=OFF) MuseScore 4 then runs correctly even though there is a lot of missing things and a few bugs (upstream seems to plan a patch for beginning of 2023)
I'm currently trying to patch MuseScore 4.0.1 to the point that it compiles on my system. What I have done so far: * switch using that custom pkgcheck module for the native pkg_check_modules() to search for libjack * add missing includes * switch usage of Q_REQUIRED_RESULT (from Qt's private API) to the standardized [[nodiscard]] attribute I am honestly surprised that some of these issues aren't caught in a CI pipeline. However, maybe this has to do with some special stuff on Gentoo? Anyway, this stuff is something which needs upstreaming, since those are serious errors in the source code and build system.
Turns out sam has already done the work upstream [0], so we only need to backport the patch to 4.0.1. I've got the ebuild to merge now and it runs successfully. Gonna do some manual testing and file a PR for the version bump later. [0] https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/commit/6cd6ee136c0c3fe09cb58000e967986c0f36c28f
PR for 4.0.1 ready for review: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/30081
Is there any news on this matter? The PR has been without a comment from any maintainer for over a month now. I'd really like to get some feedback on my PR and if there might be anything I need to do to get the version bump merged.
