David: If it will not be available for Ubuntu 12.10, then I probably need to figure out a way to provide the new version for my MIDI training initiative. If it were to come out with Ubuntu 12.10, I could simply re-package (dpkg-repack) that.
The version of fluidsynth I built for testing has development libraries. It is for i386. I would also need to package it (or something generated differently) in a way that when the official version came out, that version would replace it. Do you have any ideas (or is there documentation on) what I would need to do to provide an interim version of fluidsynth that would be reasonable for my users to make use of? - Aere On Thu, 2012-08-16 at 07:31 +0200, David Henningsson wrote: > On 08/16/2012 06:30 AM, Aere Greenway wrote: > > David: > > > > Thanks for your hard work on this.
