Re: [Banshee-List] Make errors Banshee 2.6, 2.6.2 & master

[Bertrand Lorentz <bertrand lorentz gmail com>]

Hello,

For the error when compiling Banshee 2.6:

The code is indeed quite old, so it uses methods in Mono.Cairo that have been since then marked as deprecated. As the compilation is done with the "-warnaserror" option on, the deprecation warnings cause the compilation to fail.

In any case, I wouldn't advise working on the 2.6 branch. Better to do what you want in git master, then we'll look into back-porting to the 2.6 branch.

The gstreamer-sharp errors don't happen with the latest for its git master. They were probably fixed since then. I've just committed some changes to Banshee git master, so it should now build against the latest gstreamer-sharp.

Sorry for all this trouble, Banshee master currently depends on a bunch of unreleased stuff, and things are not all nice and tidy...

Happy hacking !

Hi!
I am trying to begin developing Banshee, primarily to try to fix the slow SQLite queries that makes Banshee completely unusable on Ubuntu 15.04 (see references below). I am new and I need some help to better understand the project, its developing tools, etc.

I cloned code from the official Git repository. So far, so good (!), but when trying to compile Banshee 2.6 or Banshee 2.6.2 on Ubuntu 15.04 or 14.04, it fails due mainly to deprecated code incompatibility mainly with Hyena submodule. Please see "banshee-2.6-make-errors.txt" file attached. Autogen.sh says that all dependencies are satisfied. I looks like Hyena is automatically downloaded by autogen.sh, so I am wondering what's wrong here: I am missing something on my computer or it is normal that Banshee's code is broken/deprecated in these branches?

Also, when trying to compile code from the master branch, autogen.sh says that I am missing the gstreamer-sharp dependency and it looks that it requires precisely its version 0.99.0. When trying to compile it (code from https://github.com/gstreamer-sharp/gstreamer-sharp/releases/tag/0.99.0) ON Ubuntu 15.04, I encounter errors there too. Please see "gstreamer-sharp-0.99.0-make-errors.txt" file attached.

So I am kind of stuck here. Does anybody knows what's going on?

Thanks in advance for any help and please let me know if I should provide more info to better understand the problems.

Best,
Christian
