Bug 92806 – mythmusic 0.18.1 fails to compile with AAC support enabled

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Weder 2005-05-16 10:16:24 UTC]

When you attempt to compile mythmusic 0.18 with AAC support enabled, you'll get the following compile error:

i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -ffast-math -I/usr/include/SDL -D_REENTRANT -D_REENTRANT -fPIC  -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPREFIX=\"/usr\" -DHAVE_MMX -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -DQT_PLUGIN -I/usr/qt/3/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/cdda -I/usr/qt/3/include -I/usr/include -o flacdecoder.o flacdecoder.cpp
aacdecoder.cpp: In member function `bool aacDecoder::initializeMP4()':
aacdecoder.cpp:298: error: invalid conversion from `unsigned int*' to `long
   unsigned int*'


According to an article I've found on the mythtv-users list, this is due to an API change of the FLAC encoder/decoder:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/126739?search_string=aacdecoder;#126739

This article also gives patch to solve the problem on the mythmusic side.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge mythtmusic 0.18


Actual Results:  
The emerge was unsuccessful due to a compilation failure.

Expected Results:  
mythmusic should have compiled properly with AAC support enabled.

This issue has been fixed for about a week. Please run emerge --sync before reporting bugs.

[Comment 2 Andreas Weder 2005-05-17 00:02:47 UTC]

My apologies.

Has this been fixed in FLAC? I did a fresh download and emerge of mythmusic.

I've emerge sync-ed to get faad2 2.0-r7 (I've read the changelog with 0.18.1
emerge), but I'm still getting the same issue. I unmerge faad2 and mythmusic and
removed the distfiles to be sure, but the problem remains:

I'm not sure who had to change the type to uint or long, so I'm filing this with
the package I actually intend to install.

Ok. Well I just re-emerged faad2 and I can duplicate it. Apparently the fix was
taken out. I discussed it with the faad2 guys, they patched faad2 and then I
guess they decided to take it out.

Isn't this the same as bug 93373? 

[Comment 6 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2005-06-08 13:08:49 UTC]

Fixed in CVS.
