[Lmms-users] How to build LMMS master with libsndfile from HomeBrew on OS X(yosemite)

[NISHINO Toru]

I want to use LMMS with KORG's microKEY-25 on OS X (yosemite).

I read ​https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/2228 <https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/2228> yesterday and I tried to build LMMS from zip archive at ​https://github.com/LMMS/lmms <https://github.com/LMMS/lmms>.

cmake 3.3.0, Qt 4.8.7 and libsndfile 1.0.25 are installed from Homebrew.

I tried the following steps according to INSTALL, but failed with the message "package 'sndfile>=1.0.11' not found", but I believe sndfile 1.0.25 is installed properly, and symbolic link (/usr/local/include/ -> /usr/local/Cellar/libsndfile/1.0.25/include) is correct.

Please tell me how to fix this problem.

Thank you very much.

Nishino,

I've put the devel list on CC of this, as this is a development question.

cmake 3.3.0, Qt 4.8.7 and libsndfile 1.0.25 are installed from Homebrew.
I tried the following steps according to INSTALL, but failed with the

message "package 'sndfile>=1.0.11' not found", but I believe sndfile 1.0.25
is installed properly, and symbolic link (/usr/local/include/ ->
/usr/local/Cellar/libsndfile/1.0.25/include) is correct.

Our current Apple instructions are available here
https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/wiki/Compiling-lmms-(Apple) although they have
not yet been updated for Homebrew.

The homebrew dependency listing is used for our Travis builds and is here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LMMS/lmms/master/.travis/osx..install.sh

As far as why this module cannot be located, this may be a misconfiguration
with cmake and pkgconfig.

What do you get when you type this:

pkg-config --modversion sndfile


If that works fine, can you remove your CMakeCache.txt and try again?
There should be more output the first time cmake is run.

If you still experience issues I would recommend opening a bug report as it
is much easier to track and answer building and code-specific questions
there.

Tres,

The build problem has gone. I can launch the LMMS now. Thank you so much!!

I used the following steps.
(I downloaded the zip file again in order to use the latest version, that is latest commit 28018ad206)

brew install qt libsndfile fftw libvorbis libogg jack sdl libsamplerate stk fluid-synth portaudio fltk
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/libsndfile/1.0.25/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Cellar/fftw/3.3.4_1/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Cellar/libsamplerate/0.1.8/lib/pkgconfig
pkg-config --modversion sndfile
1.0.25
pkg-config --modversion fftw3f
3.3.4

pkg-config --modversion samplerate
0.1.8

unzip lmms-master.zip

cd lmms-master
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make

Now I try to use the Korg’s keyboard.
