Note: I'm currently mirroring our packages after using alienBob's repo script on it. I've had to change the directory structure to a saner way and this means that studiopkg is temporarily broken for now. I will update it sometime after getting slackpkg+ to work. I will be adding queue support too.
I've also had a look at sbopkg and can say that it works too:
NOTE that we have two branches: dev and master. Dev moves pretty fast at times and breakages should be expected.
Make two files:
/etc/sbopkg/repos.d/70-studioware-master.repo
/etc/sbopkg/repos.d/80-studioware-dev.repo
with the following one line for master:
studioware master "Master git branch for studioware.org" se git git://github.com/eviljames/studioware.git@master ""
and:
studioware dev "Dev git branch for studioware.org" se git git://github.com/eviljames/studioware.git@dev ""
Then go into the utilities menu and choose one of the repos.
*Note: if you have any problems you may need to rm ~/.sbopkg.conf
Excellent Site. This effort for Slackware Video/Audio is long overdue. Personally, getting video/audio type software compiled and working on my Slackware machine has been much more difficult than other types of software.
While I am personally much more interested in the Audio part, I know that many people will appreciate that Video is going to be covered as well.
Here's a relatively recent article comparing seven video editing programs, published in the German magazine Linux User 1/2013. In 7/2012 they featured kdenlive.
I've made a few changes to sepkg and studiopkg, including the format for downloading the latest versions. So for these releases you will need to grab the packages from our web and upgrade manually.
You will notice that studiopkg now does gpg checking as well as md5.
We have a few new queues: audio.sqf, photo.sqf and video.sqf, which you can pass as an argument to studiopkg:
studiopkg -q photo
for example.
We've added a photo category now:
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 GraphicsMagick/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 darktable/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 dcraw/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 8 08:57 digikam/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 flickcurl/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 gtkimageview/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 iccprofiles/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 lensfun/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 openjpeg/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 photoprint/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 rawstudio/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 separate+/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Dec 7 04:09 ufraw/
Plus a few things that went into libraries/
I've been using darktable extensively for own photography for a few a weeks now and absolutely love it. I'm not sure how say digikam and darktable will like using the same folders for their libraries, so I'm of the opinion that sticking to one or the other would work best.
Greetings
I began compiling Ardour on Slackware on version 9.1 when Alsa became default and the creator of Ardor had no real install instructions to avoid "noobs" from pestering him with time-consuming, redundant questions. By Slackware v.10.2 I really dove in and spent months compiling a complete dedicated DAW from source. Incidentally he later became very helpful and is still on the forums at Gearslutz.com.
It was a huge project back then, so much so I have kept that system and only done occasional kernel updates, not wanting to repeat the process, but also not wanting to throw it out since it worked very well, until I retired it when I moved residence 3 months ago.
So I will most emphatically give this a try and can't thank you enough for your efforts. I was almost resigned to using Studio Ubuntu (cringe!).
