Description Eduardo Gonzalez 2011-11-05 20:00:14 CET

Hi!

I had to go trough an odyssey to convert my APE music files to FLAC, because Clementine doesn't support APE, and unfortunately Monkey's Audio Codec (MAC) are not open-source,
Searching the codec I discovered that the codec are only available in Cauldron Repository and that are not so comfortable for me, because if i want a stable system I cannot use Cauldron so I need to compile some dependencies, download another ones and pfff, you know, a total mess.

Also I sugest support gCue2Tracks, It's a very useful application for me, because I download music (lossless) and some times are only 2 files, one audio file (FLAC, APE, Wav, etc) and a .cue so I need to cut in separated tracks, so I need this application because I don't like to use Command Line Programs, are problematic (for me) and well, I prefer the easy way 

I don't know if somebody read this suggest and I think that my suggest will be ignored but, well, at least I try   

Regards




Charlie

Sorry for my Stupidness, the MAC are not in Cauldron, are in Fedora.

Please open a second bug report for Monkey's Audio Codec and please put the upstream link to the package in the URL field of that bug report. 
(I didn't know what the package name would be, it doesn't seem to be "mac" and because gcue2tracks is in Mdv 2011, I chose to leave this request open for gcue2tracks)

I also set version to cauldron, because package requests will usually be done for cauldron first and are then expected to be available in the first stable release that follows.

Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.

You might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager

Last release is from 2013. Project is abandoned. There is no linux distribution (except AltLinux) which distributes this software in any official repository.

Closing as WONTFIX.

Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX
Status: NEW => RESOLVED
