#musicbrainz-devel

I have created a ui file in QtDesigner and need help in adding this new UI to the Options dialog in Picard.

Pointers?

dufferzafar1: Try and `git grep` for some of the other Options names in the code and see how they're set up?

onto it.

So, I'm attempting to build the musicbrainz server in Docker

Unfortunately, when I attempt to use cpanm to install the deps, it fills up / with complete garbage

http://blast.hardchee.se/~/files/2014-02-28/gar... <-- the result of `ls /'

I suspect this is not expected or desired, especially since subsequent calls to the database tool don't work

What environment are you trying to install it in? Which directory are you running the cpanm in? As what user?

Docker (http://docker.io/), Debian Jessie, the musicbrainz git repo that I've checked out, as root

Try to not do it as root?

seems kind of hacky, tbh. If it works, it should work, regardless of what user.

I'm running this: time cpanm --local-lib-contained /root/perl5/ --installdeps --notest .

There are lots of very hacky bits around the MB codebase, so I wouldn't be surprised. :)

This is hacky pertaining only to cpanm ;)

I don't know anything about cpanm, so I've no clue how hacky that is.

Anyway, ianmcorvidae: ping? Did you go to bed yet?

Is there a way I can disable *some* parts of the log output picard produces?

it gets pretty overwhelming,

dufferzafar1: Uncomment the relevant lines. Or look into whatever logger module Picard is using.

Well, I can ask again at some point in the future. My build log for cpanm is here: http://blast.hardchee.se/~/files/2014-02-28/bui... , perl -V is here: http://blast.hardchee.se/~/files/2014-02-28/per...

blast_hardcheese: If you can, stick around.

I should probably go to bed myself though, as tomorrow will probably be an eventful day.

ianmcorvidae or someone may come around and have an answer ready.

Freso: I can definitely idle, and I've got nick hilight on, so our paths will converge eventually

Yeah.

Exactly. :)

I can also be reached at blast [at hardchee.se] if someone prefers email.

But you're not in Sweden if it's midnight where you are!

blast [at hardchee.com] just doesn't roll off the tongue ;)

:)

I am more easily reached via email, even for a quick ping of "hey, I'm in #musicbrainz-devel if you want to troubleshoot the build process"

also, I should post the work-in-progress Dockerfile: http://blast.hardchee.se/~/files/2014-03-01/Doc...

It is guaranteed that at the end of this / will be filled with some amount of garbage from the build process

but I recognize setting up docker just to test this would be unpleasant, so I'm available for iterations.

Take care all, thanks Freso.

luks: there is a patch/commit for py2app that should make the OS X Picard build work without patching python-discid: https://bitbucket.org/ronaldoussoren/py2app/iss...

I can't easily test that myself since I don't have a working py2app Picard setup

JonnyJD: I'll try that tomorrow

luks: that would be cool, thanks
