# #
# INSTALL file for EasyTAG 2.1 #
# #
################################
Last update: 2007/05/07
1. Requirements :
=================
- glib version highter than 2.8.0 (http://www.gtk.org) (Recommended: gtk+-2.8.4)
- GTK version highter than 2.4.1 (http://www.gtk.org) (Recommended: gtk+-2.4.14)
- id3lib version highter than 3.7.12 (http://id3lib.sourceforge.net) (Recommended: id3lib-3.8.3)
- libogg and libvorbis (http://www.vorbis.com) (if not deactivated by './configure --disable-ogg')
- flac (http://flac.sourceforge.net) (if not deactivated by './configure --disable-flac')
- libmp4v2 (http://mp4v2.googlecode.com/) (if not deactivated by './configure --disable-mp4') (Recommended: libmp4v2-1.9.0)
- wavpack (http://www.wavpack.com/) (if not deactivated by './configure --disable-wavpack')
- libc 6 (glibc 2.1) or better
- gettext (if not deactivated by './configure --disable-nls')
2. Compilation Instructions :
=============================
2.1. Before to compile EasyTAG you need to install some libraries.
2.1.1. To install id3lib :
- recompile sources of id3lib (id3lib-3.x.x.tar.gz) (Recommended),
- or install id3lib-3.x.x.i386.rpm and id3lib-devel-3.x.x.i386.rpm
then run the command 'ldconfig' to update shared library symlinks.
(Nota: to see if links have been updated, run the command 'ldconfig -p|grep libid3'
if all is ok, it'll return lines like this :
libid3.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3.so
libid3-3.8.so.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libid3-3.8.so.2 )
2.1.2. To install libogg and libvorbis (http://www.vorbis.com) :
Follow the same procedure as id3lib with the following packages :
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libogg-1.0.tar.gz
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libogg-1.0-1.i386.rpm
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libogg-devel-1.0-1.i386.rpm
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libvorbis-1.0.tar.gz
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libvorbis-1.0-1.i386.rpm
- http://fatpipe.vorbis.com/files/1.0/unix/libvorbis-devel-1.0-1.i386.rpm
2.1.3. To install flac (http://flac.sourceforge.net) :
2.1.4. To install faad2 (http://www.audiocoding.com/) :
Else, you can install MPEG4IP (http://mpeg4ip.net/)
2.2. Unpack the sources of EasyTAG with
> tar xfvz easytag-x.y.z.tar.gz
(x.y.z represents the version of package, for example : 0.27.1)
2.3. Change into the new directory
> cd easytag-x.y.z/
2.4. Compile and install the program
> ./configure
> make
# make install (You need root privileges)
Notes :
- If you want to compile EasyTAG with gcc3.x, you MUST install a version of id3lib compiled
with the same version of the compiler.
- If you have the both versions of gcc installed (2.9x and 3.x), use the command './configure CC=gcc3'
for compiling with gcc3.
You may now run the program by simply typing "easytag".
(Of course the directory in which you installed it (usually /usr/local/bin) has to
be in your PATH)
3. RPM Building Instructions (RedHat 6.x 7.x) :
===============================================
If you prefer manipulate a RPM, you can build it with the following commands:
3.1. Build the RPM
# rpm -tb easytag-x.y.z.tar.gz
or
# rpm --rebuild easytag-x.y.z.src.rpm
or
copy easytag-x.y.z.tar.gz into directory /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES, get easytag.spec
into tarball, and run :
# rpm -bb easytag.spec
3.2. If succeed, you will found the rpm in /usr/src/redhat/RPM/i386/
4. RPM Building Instructions (RedHat 8.x 9) :
=============================================
If you prefer manipulate a RPM, you can build it with the following commands:
4.1. Build the RPM
# rpmbuild -tb easytag-x.y.z.tar.gz
or
# rpmbuild --rebuild easytag-x.y.z.src.rpm
or
copy easytag-x.y.z.tar.gz into directory /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES, get easytag.spec
into tarball, and run:
# rpmbuild -bb easytag.spec
4.2. If succeed, you will found the rpm in /usr/src/redhat/RPM/i386/
5. Adding a new translation file to EasyTAG :
=============================================
All catalogs are placed into po/ directory and are named as the following: fr.po for
France, de.po for Germany, and so on.
The catalogs which will be compiled with EasyTAG are set into configure.in file, into
field ALL_LINGUAS. If you have created a new translation file for your location, and
want to test it, add the corresponding code (xx for file xx.po) to this field.
Then run the script: ./autogen.sh before to recompile program (see instructions of
paragraph 2).
6. Applying a patch :
=====================
6.1. Unpack the sources (see 2.2),
6.2. Go into the directory where you unpack sources (the parent directory of easytag-x.y.z directory)
6.3. Put the patch file in this directory
6.4. Apply the patch:
for example:
> cat patch_easytag_027_027a.diff | patch -p0 (if patch file was named : patch_easytag_027_027a.diff)
(Note: the pacth file (of above example) is a diff file made with command:
diff -ruN easytag-0.27/ easytag-0.27a/ > patch_easytag_027_027a.diff
in the directory where are locate easytag-0.4 and easytag-0.4a directories)
6.5. Recompile program (see 2.3 + 2.4).
7. Segfault occurs when running EasyTAG? :
==========================================
The best way to allow us to fix the problem, is to send back a backtrace :
7.1. Be sure that core files are availables
If 'ulimit -c' returns 0, then run the command 'ulimit -c unlimited'
7.2. Get the backtrace with 'gdb easytag core' (note that on some systems, the
core file is suffixed by the pid. So use 'core._pid_number_' instead of only
'core').
> gdb easytag core._pid_number_
gdb> bt
gdb> ...
gdb> l
gdb> ...
