[Sugar-devel] Etoys mp3 files

[Ajay Garg]

Thanks Bert.
It worked at my side too !!!!

The mp3 played fine at my end though :| :)

However, I now face the ubiquitous packaging issue. As it stands out, the
src-rpm available is "squeak-vm-3.10.5-5.fc14.src.rpm", which has some very
different installation schemes as compared to the "
http://www.squeakvm.org/unix/release/Squeak-4.4.7.2357-src.tar.gz" scheme.

Worse, the make for "3.10.5-5" variant fails with the error ::

############################################################################
In file included from
/home/ajay/rpmbuild/SOURCES/Squeak-3.10-5/platforms/unix/vm/debug.c:3:0:
/usr/include/stdio.h:419:66: error: macro "dprintf" passed 3 arguments, but
takes just 1
/home/ajay/rpmbuild/SOURCES/Squeak-3.10-5/platforms/unix/vm/debug.c: In
function ‘__sq_assert’:
/home/ajay/rpmbuild/SOURCES/Squeak-3.10-5/platforms/unix/vm/debug.c:21:3:
warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘abort’
make[1]: *** [debug.o] Error 1
make: *** [vm/vm.a] Error 2
############################################################################



So, does there exist a way to make a rpm out of "4.4.7.2357" variant, with
the "Mpeg3Plugin/config.cmake" patch applied?


Thanks a ton for your time.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
