wouldn't using macports mean people would have to install macports?

the goal is to get a drop dead simple .dmg for install.

nikki: only the builder needs the macports, then distribute the resulting dmg

if only I understood compiling on macs...

well ruaok said he didn't have time to do builds, so i said could help. but why not use the tools that are already there, i don't see the point in doing a command-line gcc/make/whatever if the end result is to be a .dmg

so i can tackle an xcode project this weekend

there really is no need for that.

the build system is already in place and working.

then what do *you* need?

the build stuff needs libofa and libffmpeg built.

fine point me to it

on both archs. and the everything needs to be lipoed

I need to patch/update libofa first.

yes, that's a universal, which xcode will do automatically. and i have both PPC and mac-intel to test against

libffmpeg refuses to build as universal.

its not the picard buiild process that is the issue.

its all the prereqs

okay then build one of each, xcode can to that too

i'll have target == buildPPC and target == PPC

oops PPC and mac-intel

is that what you want?

lemme tinker with some stuff for a while. sit tight.

no worries :)

ruaok: out of curiousity, you said we're running Wiki::Text for annotations, right? Is that the usemod Wiki::Text?

Text::WikiFormat IIRC

ah; noticed a usemod version that fixes the bad-HTML list issues, and adds table support :D

hmmm

lol

http://search.cpan.org/~chromatic/Text-WikiForm... --> http://test.musicbrainz.org/show/release/?relea...

it's rendering it as: <ol><li value="1">ordered one</li><li value="2">ordered two<ol><li value="a">nested one</li><li value="b">nested two</li></ol></li></ol>

instead of: <ol><li type="1">ordered one</li><li type="1">ordered two</li><ol><li type="a">nested one</li><li type="a">nested two</li></ol></li></ol>

ruaok: there's already an ffmpeg macport: http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/brow...

yep and it wont build as a universal, I tried.

okay. so back to one of each

http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=3... :)

lol

I can pester chromatic about it if he shows up to ETech

:) :)

See, the part that bugs me is, the parser I wrote actually works 100% correctly. Given correctly formed UL/LI/OL/LI type HTML, it works 100%.

But Wiki::Text-Format produces bork HTML :P

:-(

Trying to duplicate that bork HTML, when cycling back and forth from HTML to Wiki to HTML... that dropped UL *really* mucks things up

lot of disconnects tonight

apparently...

FrederikSOlesen is now known as Freso

ruaok: just curious - the current mac version - if the prereq's don't compile how did you get it working for that version?

I didn't. that's why fingerprinting doesnt work

oh

hmm... so do you think its a problem with the code that needs fixing? or just some compilation issues to iron out?

I've got a little time this evening. so, I'm going back to square one to investiage the current state of things.

sit tight.

oh, btw ruaok, if it helps pester chromatic, I'd be quite happy to donate the javascript code to cpan, if it's actually functional (ie, if it can be made compatible with the HTML his code generates) :)

ok, I'll mention that to him

ruaok: thanks - let me know if you need someone to test or something

its going to be a while. loads and loads of compiling to do first.

fun fun :P

ruaok: no worries - its only 2:30pm here and i'm working on other stuff so i'll hang around for awhile. just ping me if you need something

.au?

rcross:nz ? or somewhere in africa

.au

we need more Japanese IRC users :)

and .au :)

rcross: i have a buddy working a telecomm project in south africa. he calls at the oddest times. it's lonely out there in the veld :)

rcross: here is your first assignment:

build and install that. :)

http://

any GM users around?

umm... ok, i'll see where i can get to. I'm not sure if i will know how to test it if it compiles though

GM?

GreaseMonkey

damnit... where is the rubber cement?!

lol

release events?

yup

I need one with lots of labels

try sarah vaughan she was the first major artist to be simultaneously signed to *two* labels. one for straight ahead jazz and one for pop music -- remember in the late 50's / early 60s she was a bigger pop star than Frank Sinatra. she also had a bigger recording contract -- for a whopping $250,000 USD :)

thanks ojnkpjg, exactly what I needed :)

brianfreud: also look at quincy jones, he had a vanity label under A & M, which was gobbled up when A & M was sold

hmmm, enough labels for the same date in the same country?

should probably be labeled a promo

each of the labels contributed tracks

ouch

and it was a simultaneous release on all of them

brianfreud: yeah, all his stuff from the 70's would have been released under QWest an imprint under A & M. who knows what they're released as now

rcross: any luck?

i forget whether it was given away for free or not

natta!

natta mo

still trying - i realized that i didn't have xcode installed yet so i'm trying to find my dvd
