Good day everyone
Hi!
Im having some troubles compiling the lastest version of pulseaudio from the sources
Im getting the same error when I use the PKGBUILD from the version 0.9.15 (from the community repo)
I just built 0.9.19 without modifying the PKGBUILD, in a clean chroot on x86_64, with the default makepkg.conf, including the latest LDFLAGS. I've been having some problems with pulse and the newest kernel (no audio on Intel HDA, while alsa works fine), so I'm holding back the upgrade until I can properly test it.
any ideas of how to fix this?
Try the chroot method, it's the best way to get rid of other software's interferences. For info see: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot
by the way, according to this: http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/WhatIsWrongWithSystemMode is not a good idea to have an init script for pulseaudio
Thanks for pointing it out. My general opinion is I'd keep providing the script because the system-wide daemon is supported upstream. They don't encourage its usage, but neither do I. I'd want some more feedback from the community on this point, however. Attaching the script to the wiki and removing it from the package could be another good solution. bardo
