|
|
Ok, I am going thorugh the Gentoo ALSA Guide, and I am to the point where I can play things perfectly well in XMMS and RhythmBox by using ALSA, both with the ALSA plugin and through ALSA's OSS backwards-compatiblity layer. It tells me that (since my on-board VIA sound does not have hardware synthesizing), I should Code: | # emerge timidity++ | So I go to emerge it, and BANG. It gives tells me to emerge emacs as a dependency because of my emacs USE flag being set. Granted, I had that in my USE flags originally and just forgot to take it out, but why would a sound synthesizer have GNU Emacs support? Quote: | root@peter-computer /root # emerge -av timidity++
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] app-editors/emacs-21.3-r4 +X -Xaw3d -debug +gnome -leim -lesstif +motif +nls 23,135 kB
[ebuild N ] media-sound/timidity++-2.13.0-r1 +X +alsa -arts +emacs +esd +gtk -jack +motif +nas +oggvorbis +oss -portaudio +slang +tcltk 0 kB
Total size of downloads: 23,135 kB
Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] | Just curious, and I appreciate any advice... _________________ ~~ Peter: Programmer, Mathematician, STEM & Free Software Advocate, Enlightened Agent, Transhumanist, Fedora contributor

why not look at the ebuild?
Code: | if use emacs ; then
dosed 's:/usr/local/bin/timidity:/usr/bin/timidity:g' /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/timidity.el
else
rm ${D}/timidity.el
fi
} |
searching for timidity.el on google reveals this:
Quote: | The timidity.el Emacs-Lisp program is a front-end to the timidity software only MIDI sequencer. You can play MIDI files directly from Emacs with this package. |
