[SlimDevices: Jive] Building & running Squeezeplay v7.8 trunk on Ubuntu 12.04

[Braklet]

Just repeated a Squeezeplay build using an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit OS
and the Squeezeplay 7.8 trunk (rev 9704). Required some changes to the
procedure outlined in post #1 which I'll recap here.

1. Don't make the change to
<builddir>/squeezeplay/src/squeezeplay/src/audio/decode/decode.c, just
leave it as original. "%llu" works fine on my x86_64 platform.

2. The make system is set to treat warnings as errors, so tweak
<builddir>/squeezeplay/src/squeezeplay/src/jive_debug.c:

Change line 100 from "memset(hd, 0, sizeof(hd));" to "memset(hd, 0,
sizeof(*hd));"

3. The latest SDL-1.2.15 is a pain. I don't know how it ever worked
with Squeezeplay. However, the SDL-1.2.13 bundled with Squeezeplay
still causes problems so you still have to replace it with downloaded
1.2.15. Then you have to hack it and pull some of the 1.2.13 code back
in. In a nutshell:

a. Download SDL-1.2.15 and replace SDL-1.2.13 as described before.

b. Patch it with this:
https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/media-libs/libsdl/files/libsdl-1.2.15-const-xdata32.patch?view=markup
, for example:

Code:
--------------------
cd SDL-1.2.13
patch -p1 < ~/Source/squeezeplay-STASH/libsdl-1.2.15-const-xdata32.patch
--------------------


c. Modify the _XData32 definition (as described in the Linux From
Scratch recipe):

Code:
--------------------
sed -i '/_XData32/s:register long:register _Xconst long:' src/video/x11/SDL_x11s
ym.h
--------------------


d. Now you need to restore some of the definitions from SDL-1.2.15. I
attached 3 patch files corresponding to the 3 files needing patches:
include/SDL_keysym.h, include/SDL_events.h, and
src/events/SDL_events.c.

Code:
--------------------
cd SDL-1.2.13/include
patch < SDL_keysym.h.patch
patch < SDL_events.h.patch
cd SDL-1.2.13/src/events
patch < SDL_events.c.patch
--------------------


This should be enough to successfully run "make -f Makefile.linux" .
