Description Stefan Horn 2014-02-16 22:23:47 CET

Description of problem:

Starting Stepmania from menu doesn't work. There is a mistake in desktop-file:

Exec=soundwrapper /usr/games/stepmania

But it can be started from konsole with stepmania.

So the following entry is right.

Exec=/usr/games/stepmania

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

graphics, visualizations, support for gamepads/dance pads, a step recording
mode, and more!
To add songs, simply copy the content of your folder containing songs
to ~/StepMania/Songs as user, or to /usr/share/StepMania/Songs as root.

Comment 1 Florian Hubold 2014-02-16 22:32:03 CET

Will take a look.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Comment 2 Florian Hubold 2014-03-16 13:57:52 CET

stepmania-3.9-22.mga5 submitted to core/release for cauldron.

stepmania-3.9-21.1.mga4 submitted to core/updates_testing for Mageia 4.


Suggested advisory:
========================

You can test this by installing stepmania and running it via the menu entry.  Previously, that was "soundwrapper /usr/games/stepmania" and it would not run, but produce a segfault because it was called via soundwrapper. The call to soundwrapper and the Requires on soundwrapper have been removed.

Comment 3 Florian Hubold 2014-03-16 13:59:02 CET

For completeness sake, this is what the start looks with soundwrapper:

Comment 4 user7 2014-03-16 20:03:45 CET

Stefan Horn: Could you test the update candidate and see if it fixes the problem for you?

will test on MGA4, i586 shortly.

CC: (none) => wassi

Comment 5 Stefan Horn 2014-03-16 20:36:20 CET

I have activated core/updates_testing (distrib 11), but a stepmania-3.9-22.mga4.x86_64.rpm wasn't found. 
Regards, Stefan

Comment 6 user7 2014-03-16 21:00:21 CET

Testing complete Mageia 4 i586 for stepmania-3.9-21.1.mga4. I could reproduce the problem, the update fixes it. Please note that you must close any other program which outputs sound (e.g. amarok) before starting stepmania, or it will crash with a long error message ending with "Error: Couldn't find a sound driver that works". I'm not sure whether this is a bug or not, but it would certainly be a different one than the one reported in this bug report. Also, it looks like it was not introduced by this update, as I had the same error on my system before the update.

Thus I'd say this update candidate is OK on MGA4-i586.

Advisory must be fixed. The package in core/updates_testing is stepmania-3.9-21.1.mga4 (NOT 3.9-22)

Suggested advisory:
========================

Starting stepmania via the menu entry resulted in a segfault because it was called via soundwrapper. This update fixes it and removes the dependency on soundwrapper.

You may need to wait a few hours or a day for your mirror to catch up.

Comment 8 user7 2014-03-16 23:13:24 CET

Stefan Horn: As mentioned in my comment, the version in core/updates_testing for Mageia 4 is 3.9-21.1, not 3.9-22. Maybe that helps? Otherwise you'll have to wait a bit, as Florian suggested.

For me this update works fine although others may
find wrinkles in this silly package. Launch issue
is solved. Testing complete for mga4 32-bit & 64-bit
Validating the update. Could someone from the sysadmin
team push this to updates. Thanks
