It should at least be possible to do this for cauldron. I don't know whether pushing it to Mageia 7 is allowed https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Updates_policy#Version_Policy

The RPM available for Mga7 in backports_testing is working, but it seems there is a bug in that version: when creating a new music score, the second screen (choose the instruments) leads to an empty box. It works fine if you choose a standard orchestral type (symphony orchestra, jazz band, quartets and so…), but you can't choose the instruments individually at this stage.

This is fixed in revision 1.1

MuseScore 3.0.5 has bugs ...
I need MuseScore 3.3.4 to be able to create scores with tablatures for my diatonic accordion !  Please upgrade the version of MuseScore available.

Release 3.3.4 available in Core/Backports_testing repo!

By that way, I just found 3.3.0 version, not 3.3.4 version. But it seems OK for what I need.
I thank you.

I have installed version 3.3.4 from Backports_testing but when I run Musescore, the About info is still “3.3.0”, so I am not really sure what version I am testing!

Here is what I get when I run mscore from a konsole:

$ rpm -qa | grep mscore
mscore-3.3.4-1.mga7
mscore-fonts-3.3.4-1.mga7

$ mscore 
qrc:/qml/palettes/PaletteTree.qml:149: Error: Cannot assign to non-existent property "color"

I am no longer able to find MuseScore 3.3 from Mageia CCM.
I solved my problem by using MuseScore-3.3.4-x86_64.AppImage

Testing the RPM available in Core Backports Testing:

$ rpm -qa | grep mscore
mscore-fonts-3.3.4-1.1.mga7
mscore-3.3.4-1.1.mga7

When opening Musescore, this error message pops up:
Impossible de lire le fichier /usr/share/mscore-3.0/demos/My_First_Score.mscx :
No such file or directory

(Impossible to read file /usl/share/… etc.)

Musescore seems to work despite this error message.

Hmmm, not working so well:
we're back to the problem I mentionned in comment #2 : the list of instruments is empty when you try to choose them individually.

Even the AppImage is “not working” (cf comment #2) anymore once the 3.3.4 RPM is installed. It needs to be fully uninstalled, and then install 3.0.5 again so that you can use the AppImage again…

mscore-3.3.4-1.1.mga7 needs to be repackaged ;)

The empty list of instruments comes from an error in the location of the file intruments.xml: in  Edit → Preferences → Score tab, it is  /usr/share/mscore-3.0/instruments/instruments.xml, it must be  /usr/share/mscore-3.3/instruments/instruments.xml.
But as said in  https://musescore.org/en/comment/972504#comment-972504, it would better to have /usr/share/mscore-3/instruments/instruments.xml defined in the Mageia RPM.

Hello!
I have tested mscore-3.4.1 which is in Mga7's Core/Backports_testing at the moment and this version worked perfectly well on my system.
All of the problems that I described in previous comments have been solved.

This package is ready for further testing by the QA team ;)

The package mscore 3.3.0, release 1.1mga7, architecture x86_64 failed to install. Would it be possible to provide the package for MuseScore 3.4.2, released on February 7, 2020? The last version of MuseScore provided and installed on my computer is 3.0.5 !!!

mscore 3.4.1 is in Core/Backports_testing repo!

Now I can see it. The update of repos helped.

Bonjour,

Everything is updated and OK for me with MuseScore-3.4.2-x86_64.AppImage.

Pierre

Thanks reporting this,

mscore-3.5.0-1.mga8 is already in Cauldron folks.

At this time, I see mscore-3.4.1-1.mga7.x86_64.rpm in Mageia 7, x86_64 media, core-backports_testing.

Component: Release (media or process) => RPM Packages
CC: sysadmin-bugs => (none)

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

After upgrading from Mageia7 to Mageia8 on my main computer, the bug I mentioned in comment #2 was back again.
It is necessary to change the path as suggested in comment #10 and indicate: /usr/share/mscore-3.5/instruments/instruments.xml

Resolution: FIXED => (none)
Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
