#musicbrainz

hey guys, i'm trying to install a local instance of musicbrainz, but hitting a roadblock

running carton install --deployment produces an error saying it can't locate the cpan file

you should probably ask in #musicbrainz-devel, and I'd recommend putting the full error in a pastebin somewhere so you can link it

thanks... not really much to paste... it's literally just saying it can't find the cpan file...

I'm guessing there's more than that, since that's not an error that makes sense :P

Can't locate cpanfile.

thats the error

fyi: kepstin-work and hawke_1, I've also got this bug on beets regarding track and recording artists: https://github.com/sampsyo/beets/issues/187

nikki: Yeah, it's a large(!) island by the North Pole, just East of Canada.

:D

nikki, how would you choose to transliterate ハゥ?

hu

not that I'm nikki

but that's probably to distinguish it from フ which is sort of partway between 'hu' and 'fu'

That would be my guess, but I'm not certain.

unless it's something crazy I don't know about, but :P

It is Ainu, so it's possibly something crazy, but...

heh

The Ainu language Wikipedia page says nothing.

hah, I was just checking there

Ahh. Wikipedia says it's a syllable-final /ʊ/.

And transliterates it w.

<w>

oh, I see, it only does the *example* with the ka row, but

I'm going to stick an apostrophe after it so it's <Haw’ehe> instead of the possibly-something-else <Hawehe>.

I don't use transliterated tracklists, but maybe it will be useful to someone.

yeah, to be clear it's not ハヱヘ, rare as that second character is it *is* used in ainu, so...

Yeah.

ハゥ whoo now I have a way to input that little ウ

only for 'haw' though, I should probably put in others

maybe I should make it require two w to be clear it's not something going into a new character

How did you do it?

by adding another definition to my anthy dictionary

I already have a japanese IME, so

Aha.

I do too. Using anthy, even.

yeah

if you're using scim, scim-setup -> romaji typing tab -> customize button

ibus, but I can figure it out.

I recommend having ww -> ゥ and yy -> ィ so you don't end up with weirdnesses trying to type w-row characters

Makes sense.

Like n -> ん.

I feel like ibus's architecture is a bit more polished, but it still has its issues.

ianmcorvidae: I don’t want to sound like I’m more clever or anything but usually japanese IME allow you to obtain small letters by preceeding with an impossible input like "x" : ぅゥぃィゅュ is xuxuxixi xyu xyu etc.

xtu っ

etc.

Hmm. I should add ㇰ, ㇱ, ㇲ, etc.

those are not used in common jpn though

:)

No, but they are used in Ainu.

I don’t have ainu IME so I can’t type without looking up in BabelMap :)

for those

If I ever need it!?

I can modify my IM to allow those.

héhé wow …

the only ainu I needed to type was てぃんさぐぬ花

Hmm? Doesn't look like Ainu to me.

it’s not even ainuah no it’s not

it’s ryūkyū stuff

☞ so I never used ainu once

Nobodies think like merging the “jesus2099” menu and the “My data” menu ?

do you have a clue to know exactly what you are looking for is in the one or the other, a special hint or tip, like a … mnemonic (is how you say?)

I have one Ainu album. I'd like more.

is it ainu metal?

No, sadly.

It’s ainu trance?

Ainu folk.

Need to buy a bunch of Japanese CDs.

“need” :)

Yes.

Otherwise, how do they get into MB?

I input those things I have too… but don’t buy them for MB, I buy them I like then I think of MB afterxwards :)

Same, but MB will sometimes sway me a little.

It’s true I buy more singles now because of MB :D

1€ or 2€ regularly…

spent for MB first then for my enjoyment afterwards

CatCat: I’ve listened to the whole diablo album yesterday, it was cool indeed :)

thanks

nikki, still need albums with tonkori?

Leftmost: Actually I found that I edited ONE ainu release some time ago… and now I’m corssing your way in http://musicbrainz.org/artist/ca98577d-051e-49f... :)

(when fixing it little)

I guess it is still Ainu, just in Latin script.

IHUNKE is one of the albums I want to buy.

Leftmost: take the re-relzease then, it has 4 bonu trucks and lovely sleeve :)

(default off because maybe only for me!)

I intended to.

héhé IHUNKE is one of the albums I edited without having it

not great edits though

not even listened to

that userjs page needs a refreshing and light new layout

How do you say "Happy birthday" in Japanese?

(Romanised or not.)

お誕生日おめでとう。

okay to remove (original mix) from beatport track titles?
