With libmikmod-3.1.11-r1 and alsa-lib-1.0.8, libmikmod consistently fails to build ALSA support with the alsa USE flag enabled. It seems to check ALSA using a symbol which isn't in newer versions. As written at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/multimedia/libmikmod.html , putting the below in src_unpack at first appears to fix the problem: sed -i -e "s/VERSION=10/VERSION=11/" \ -e "s/sys_asoundlib/alsa_asoundlib/" \ -e "s/snd_cards/snd_card_load/g" \ -e "s|sys/asoundlib.h|alsa/asoundlib.h|g" \ -e "s/^LIBOBJS/#LIBOBJS/" \ configure.in || die autoconf || die The output of the configure script then indicates that it is building ALSA support. However, I still can't get any mikmod apps to see the driver (e.g. it does not appear in the output of 'mikmod -n'), while they worked fine with older versions of alsa-lib (I'm not sure with exactly which version the problems began, as I don't use libmikmod apps very often).
I didn't know that problem when sound apps are emerged with -oss as USE flages. It's posted a half years ago, but it's status is new, and it looks like easy to fix. emerge =media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r1 with USE="alsa -esd -oss" said that.: (SNIP) Drivers to be compiled: raw wav pipe stdout nosound (SNIP) Then, with libmikmod-3.1.11-r2 'mikmod -n' said like that.: -= MikMod 3.2.1 =- (SNIP) Available drivers are : 1 Raw disk writer (music.raw) v1.1 2 Wav disk writer (music.wav) v1.2 3 Piped Output driver v0.2 4 Standard output driver v1.1 5 Nosound Direver v3.0 Recognized module formats are : (SNIP) So, its case, can't available alsa nor oss. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- emerge =media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r1 with USE="alsa -esd oss" said that.: (SNIP) Drivers to be compiled: oss raw wav pipe stdout nosound (SNIP) Then, with libmikmod-3.1.11-r2 'mikmod -n' said like that.: 1 Open Sound driver v1.7 2 Raw disk writer (music.raw) v1.1 3 Wav disk writer (music.wav) v1.2 4 Piped Output driver v0.2 5 Standard output driver v1.1 6 Nosound Direver v3.0 So, its case, not available alsa. ============================================================================ Let the ebuild was added BLFS sed's lines is media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r2. emerge =media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r2 with USE="alsa -esd -oss" said that.: (SNIP) Drivers to be compiled: alsa raw wav pipe stdout nosound (SNIP) So, this tip seems work for libmikmod's configure.

Created attachment 78775 [details] A ebuild for media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r2 (Added BLFS's sed line)
Can someone use a patch rather than a sed line? it's less likely to hit problems when newer versions are released.
This bug is still around with alsa 1.0.14_rc1 and libmikmod 3.1.11-r3.

If anybody has peeked inside libmikmod-3.1.11/drivers/drv_alsa.c, you will find this piece of code #include <sys/asoundlib.h> #if defined(SND_LIB_VERSION) && (SND_LIB_VERSION >= 0x500) #undef DRV_ALSA #endif Which should be there aswell, since the driver only supports OLD versions of libalsa. Upstream seems a bit dead, but if you want to write a patch for it, go-ahead. I would say that this is a upstream "bug", and that alsa support can be removed from the use-word listing, or depend on alsalib version lower than 0.5.0 (I believe it would be). I would say that this should say that the current RESOLVED/FIXED status is wrong on this bug.
Reopening
Can't we just remove the alsa-use flag. mikmod is more or less an inactive project with no releases since 2004, or news since 2005 (several bugs in file-loaders for instance that makes mikmod freeze).
Unfortunately timidity++ ships a copy of libmikmod, we need to fix system copy and make it use one.
Fixed with 3.2.0_beta2, please test.

Please re-open this bug. My wife keeps filling up my hard drive by playing gweled (see http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/15685?dev=418 or bug #108164 or bug #99590). Please fix this! The Gentoo maintainers of gweled said they don't want to use the patches that fedorka, debian and everybody else have used, saying they think MikMod shouldn't enable the file output when calling MikMod_RegisterAllDrivers(). Apparently, the rest of the GNU/Linux community disagrees. Either way, if you fix this issue, mikmod should use the alsa output device instead (in myy case at least) and not write this horrendous file. BTW, I tried doing a touch ~/misic.raw; chmod -w music.raw, but then gweled fails to start. I think I'll see if I can symlink it to /dev/null next. /usr/portage/media-libs/libmikmod# emerge -pv libmikmod gweled These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
