Re: [arch-proaudio] snd with scheme

10 Jul 2021


      Yup, the default would definitely be preferable. In arch it is simply a flag in the pkgbuild and a dependency that can be removed. I maintain my own pkgbuild locally that I occasionally sync up to the community one. It currently looks like this:

Hi,
AFAIR this (snd-ruby...) was the way it was handled in debian distros
when I still was on debian. It might be that on debian you had to
symlink snd to snd-scheme, but my memories are blurred.
I'd appreciate, if snd would stay in sync with the scheme default but
it's not a big deal.

Hi list,
I've recently started working with the snd editor (the audacity debacle gave me that last push...), and I was just wondering what the rationale is for shipping snd with ruby support, instead of the default scheme? Would it be an idea to keep the snd package in community with the scheme default, and instead create a snd-{ruby,forth} package in aur instead for those that use those?
Best,
Kenneth
