Don't know anything about this.

Compile from source/git or use Archlinux.

It would be better if the Denemo devs deliver proper packages for Debian, better for users and the project itself...

make

Code: Select all

-1.0 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lm -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lcairo -lpango-1.0 -lfreetype -lfontconfig -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -lglib-2.0   -lguile -lgmp -lcrypt -lm -lltdl   -laubio   -lportaudio -lm -lpthread   -lxml2
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libjack.la' or unhandled argument `/usr/lib/libjack.la'
make[2]: *** [denemo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/d/2home/denemo-0.8.2/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/d/2home/denemo-0.8.2'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Its an disaster to install Denemo properly

Ehm,why should a developer care about proper packaging? It's ok if some of them offer packages, but it is definitely not the task of a developer to package his software. There's no reason to blame the developers, just file a bug report at debian and get in contact with the maintainer..

The deb package may be broken, yes. The right place would be denemo.org and not this board.

Anyway: I can guarantee that both the sourcecode-release and the git version are compiling fine. I don't like that sentence myself, but "it has to be your system".

Looks like a workaround might be to run the dpkg command with / as the 'current directory'

have you installed it by hand or by package management? If by hand mabye its in /usr/local and does not get found. I only know that debian can be quite strange with placing packages.

Code: Select all

sudo updatedb
locate libjack.la
ln -s [filefound] /usr/lib/libjack.la

apt-file is the tool you're looking for:

Code: Select all

arnouten@mintzer:~$ apt-file search libjack.la
libjack-dev: /usr/lib/libjack.la
arnouten@mintzer:~$ 
.. so it looks like you don't have libjack-dev yet (or you have a different setup from mine).
