Guitarix project.

We hope the plugs will be useful,

This is fantastic news! Thank you! I have a small request. Could you also provide the binaries in a distro agnostic package or RPM as well for all of the non-Debian distro family linux users? We RPM users are feeling left out. :wink: A tar.gz file with a readme that tells us where to put the binaries would be sufficient. Please?

It's better to ask your distro (btw which one?) maintainers to add the package to repositories.

Like @Kott said, would be better to ask your distribution to add GxPlugins. Even, if we provide distro agnostic binary's they will be build against ubuntu 22.04, as that is what github provide for build hosts.
But, GxPlugins have a very low dependency level, they only need cairo, X11 and lv2, you'll properly have those installed already when you've ever build a application from source before.

On the road again.

A one-shot solution for those kind of problems (converting packaging formats) can (still) be Joey Hess's good ol' "alien".
Just type "deb to rpm" in your favourite web crawler.

You can open a deb file with an archive manager like ark, open data.tar.zst and this shows the files that will be extracted. In this case, you can go in /usr/lib/lv2 and find all the plugins there.

On AVL-MXE 21.1 I got this error trying to install the deb file with gdebi:
dpkg-deb: error: archive 'gxplugins_1.0_amd64.deb' uses unknown compression for member 'control.tar.zst', giving up
I installed the zstd package but this did not help. I then tried the suggestion
ark gxplugins_1.0_amd64.deb
and did "Extract" on data.tar.zst. This extracted the plugins to /tmp/ark-jrozbH/usr/lib/lv2
and then I copied the plugins (as root) to /usr/lib/lv2.
Carla was able to discover them so that is great. Thanks for putting together these plugins!
