Packages
Requirement(s)
Arch Linux *
* You must already have a working system with sound (see ArchWiki)
Repositories
We have a total of three binary “repos” on our server. For now only our testing repository is really active, but we recommend adding all of them to /etc/pacman.conf (replace i686 with x86_64 for 64-bit):
# tried and tested packages [archaudio-stable] Server = http://repos.archaudio.org/stable/i686 # these are..for testing? [archaudio-testing] Server = http://repos.archaudio.org/testing/i686 # for your pleasure [archaudio-experimental] Server = http://repos.archaudio.org/experimental/i686 |
PKGBUILDs
You need the subversion program to download our buildscripts from the development tree. You can then do an anonymous checkout by running:
svn co https://svn.archaudio.org/trunk/buildscripts archaudio-sources |
These are working copies of ongoing development, so the scripts may not reflect the contents of existing binary packages.
AUR
We also distribute our buildscripts via the Arch User Repository, the prized add-on feature of our beloved “distro”. Since they are maintained by different users there, the frequency of updates and content may fluctuate.
History
Below is a list of our previous efforts, which are basically infant initiatives.
ProAudio@Google – A dedicated repository that changed the way we would handle source-based packages for distribution, initiated by Mark “markc” Constable (he is also the maintainer of a KDE repository). This was what led to ArchAudio.
source-only
Berkus’ Madfire – Our earliest home of binaries, and sources as well. You may find older versions of some software to be useful, especially the kernel.
