it should be already ok as I hadn't added it to this repository, it was just on a testing directory on my webserver.

Hi ponce, that worked fine; thanks a lot and a good new year

latest update causing sbotools failed, due to invalid entry at
gis/proj/proj.info file
MD5SUM quoting is not correct.

thanks but this is an oversight in the main SBo repository and it has been already fixed in one of the working git branches: it will go in the master branch at the next update.

Hi , another python added to current.

Pygments

pygments is also needed by appstream-glib (build will fail otherwise).

he is actually saying that because Pygments has been added to the stock Slackware current (as python-pygments) should be removed from this fork of SBo for current to avoid duplication and overlapping of packages (and I have just done it, thanks!).
it has been added to the latest current because, as the ChangeLog says, it has been introduced as a dependency of gtk-doc and some packages on the stock current weren't building without it.

I have figured it out and corrected my posting. Thanks ponce for pointing that out.

Sorry, I was posting and hadn't seen your edit...

appstream-glib does not require pygments. At least not according to Arch or Gentoo. And I have never needed it when building appstream-glib. Maybe you're thinking about something else?

Faac/faac.SlackBuilds contains the following command:
This appears to be pearlish. There is no `die` command in Bash. You could add
but it is easier to change `die` to `exit`. Of course, nobody will notice, since the `sed` command usually works. That and the patches will need to be changed for the current version: faac-1.29.9.2.

Make stops at
This was fixed three years ago upstream Building cinelerra calls for a prerequisite 'faac', which requires libmp4v2.
https://code.google.com/archive/p/mp4v2/ has many mirrors, many of which are not maintained. The google site declares version 2.0.0 as the most recent, which is the version we have at slackbuilds, uploaded in 2012. Each of the more-recent versions is marked 'deprecated'. Suggest we go with Sérgio Basto's git version, perhaps bundle a git-clone into a tarball? His last commit was Nov 2019, which builds error-free using a modified SlackBuild script.

hi hpfeil,

libmp4v2 is already patched for current in the repository linked in the first post.

BTW, I stepped in as a maintainer of faac and libmp4v2 a few days ago and I have already bumped this last locally to that git version: FYI the new faac (1.30), which I'm also about to update, doesn't depend on libmp4v2 anymore as it has a new own version of an mp4v2 library included in its code.
both the new versions will go in the SBo repository for 14.2 and will be available also for current.

Thanks, Ponce!
I was setting up a cinelerra render farm on a couple of older laptops while troubleshooting why a single png wouldn't render. Finally worked after I put the 600 png images into /mnt/render on the server and mounted that on the clients as /mnt/render and synchronized ~/.bcast5. Instead of a 3-hr 2760x1080 UHD video taking four days to render, it now takes less than 20 hours. Appreciate your work! You won't need the patches and the sed command in faac.SlackBuilds with the latest version from https://www.audiocoding.com/downloads.html If you look at Cinelerra GG, probably don't need faac at all. See fdkaac and libfdk_aac.
