Title: AMD64 build libraries required
Post by: bob on August 11, 2015, 01:04:16 pm

For MC21 the required libs supplied by the distro are greatly reduced.

Information for people trying to run on unsupported distros.

Many of these require other libs. If you have your dependencies in place you should be able to get MC to work.
The version of the library is important. Major version revisions often have different API's and as such won't work.

Code: [Select]

libuuid1

Standard libs that should exist on any linux AMD64 GUI platform.

Code: [Select]

libpthread
libdl
librt
libX11
libXext
libxdmcp6
These graphics libs and their dependencies should exist on most any linux AMD64 GUI platform. You may need to retrieve proper versions.

Code: [Select]

libgtk2.0 2.24
libglib-2.0 2.32
libpango1.0-0 1.36
libgl1 or libgl1-mesa-glx
xdg-utils
exo-utils or kde-runtime or konqueror  or gvfs-bin or libgnome2-0 or pcmanfm

We build against the versions from Debian Jessie, so thats our reference. For most libraries, slightly newer versions should also work, as long as its the same major version (ie. gtk2, not gtk3, of course)

If using a soundcard RME 9632: it is not automatically supported by pulseaudio. Do this:
Install ALSA modules

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install alsa-tools alsa-firmware-loadersThen, open file : /etc/pulse/default.pa

Code: [Select]

sudo gedit /etc/pulse/default.pathen uncomment (remove the #) the line:

Code: [Select]

#load-module module-alsa-sink
Save changes, and close your session.

Before you can run, the card requires hdspmixer be launched at the opening session:

Code: [Select]

/usr/bin/hdspmixer
If clicks and crackles when listening, see here. (https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/pulseaudio#le_son_craque)
