problem with slv2.h building from svn

Hello, I'd like to build the latest svn qtractor version, however when I run ./configure I get this:


checking slv2/slv2.h usability... no
checking slv2/slv2.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: slv2/slv2.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: slv2/slv2.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: slv2/slv2.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: slv2/slv2.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: slv2/slv2.h: proceeding with the compiler's result
configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING: ## Report this to rncbc@rncbc.org ##
configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------ ##
checking for slv2/slv2.h... no
configure: error: slv2.h header file not found.

but the header is there:

renato@acerarch ~/src/qtractor-svn/src $ ls -lh /usr/include/slv2/slv2.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3K May 13 2009 /usr/include/slv2/slv2.h

this is arch linux right?

too bad. i've been told, from some other arch users, that slv2 has been broken, since some recent redland, raptor or librdf update, whatever; as a matter of fact, this issue also affects ardour2 which seems to have lost LV2 plugin support altogether, due to the very same reason.

in your case, if that won't get fixed upstream (on arch repos) then you have one of two choices:

  1. build without lv2 plugin support:
    ./configure --disable-slv2
  2. build against the newer lilv, suil, sord and serd stack:
    ./configure --enable-lilv

hth.
cheers

yes, archlinux. thanks, building with lilv worked ok
