Apparently they silently repackaged it. Fixed the checksum, also using sha256 now, because why not.

The package's m5sum is not valid anymore:

It seems to work so long as an audio backend is installed at some point. It also fails relatively gracefully if a backend is missing.

For example, I've installed the gnome-desktop group, which depends on PulseAudio and ALSA. To install this package, I downloaded a snapshot and moved jack to optdepends, built it, and added it to IgnorePkg. Both the PulseAudio and ALSA backends work, though I had to make a simple change to my PulseAudio configuration.

It is possible, but we need to make sure it works without jack libs.

P.S. Zenity also seems like an unnecessary dependency, never seen it using it.

Is it possible to move the dependency on the jack group to optdepends? I know many people prefer to use Jack with DAWs, but it isn't required by Bitwig Studio. Sometimes I actually prefer not to install it.

flac/mp3 issues have been resolved in 2.3.3 for me

prg commented on 2018-04-27 15:15 (UTC)

Just had a conversation with one of the bitwig devs - sounds like they are aware of this issue (they are running into this with Ubuntu 18.04) and plan to fix it in a 2.3.x point release. Could potentially be related to ffprobe

Workaround for the time being would be to decode mp3/flac/whatever to WAV before you import

Obviously, the avprobe symlink trick doesn't work either.

My guess is that it's related to gstreamer: I use git to keep track of my bitwig projects and by looking at the logs I can tell that MP3 worked on the 14th of March, that is after ffmpeg 3.4.2-2 but before gstreamer 1.14. This is one of the packages i've been playing with recently and we can see that there are gstreamer libraries in /opt/bitwig-studio. That could explain why not everybody is experiencing the issue. That's quite a random guess, still. Anyone can confirm that it works without gstreamer ?
