I think the --enable-rtcap option is broken in the latest Muse release.
At least the last time I try it was not able to compile givertcap.c. I
think it has something to do why Muse wanting to compile it with gcc
instead of g (Tommi Ilmonen file is givertcap.C and not givertcap.c as
in Muse). I am not sure it's the only problem .... otherwise it should
be easily fixed.
What is working is the --enable-suid-install option.

--enable-rtcap works for me on muse 0.6.3 (I agree it was broken on 0.6.2).
--enable-suid-install is just the same as giving the muse binary suid.. might be easier to
do that if muse is already installed.
James
I did the
rt-capability operation.Now alsaplayer and ardour
are doing fine with jackstart.
Muse doesnt like this way.With jackstart it still needs to be root for
starting,but then it crashes.It still works when jack is started the old
way (as root).
The qeustion is who is to blame :me,jack or muse?
Thanks for the help
Jaap van Geffen
You have to compile muse with the --enable-rtcap option or change the
muse executable to suid (chmod s /usr/local/bin/muse or whatever).

Thank you.
I upgraded to your muse 0.6.3 ebuild.
The --enable rtcap option is not a use flag for this
ebuild.I don't confuse with the suid root option,which
is a use-flag.
And I can't start muse as a user,so if it is an option
it is disabled or it doesn't work.
I don't know anything about ebuilds,but shouldn't it
be a use-flags?How can I change a compile-option if
it isn't a use-flag?
Any way,when jack is run with jackstart a can start
muse now as root(so I suppose also as suid root),without
crash,so the upgrade is paying allready.

I have no idea about Gentoo and ebuilds. What is wrong with downloading
the source and compiling it yourself?

It's more work.
And if the ebuild is ok,it will be easier for a lot of people.
Maybe you have to try gentoo to understand..:)

James:
Gentoo's ebuilds are, like the ports in FreeBSD ,
a very powerful way to keep your system updated.
They automatically download, compile and install
not only the program you want but the dependencies as well.
They let you have all the programs compiled with
options optimized for your specific machine,
and record everything they do in a database.
You can (often) easily write ebuilds yourself, especially for
programs using autoconf etc.
The ebuild system is the main reason I shifted to Gentoo,
and highly recommend it.
Jaap:
I was always running jack,muse etc. as root , so I never bothered
about capabilities. I had a look in portage and I saw that there are
actually
two flags for configuring capabilities: "caps" for gnupg ,
and "jack-caps" for jack. But this is redundant since both of
them require for the installation of libcap (I'll send a bug report for
that later).
What I don't know is, whether giving "--enable-rtcap" for muse
requires libcap. Maybe the guys from muse can tell us...?
Anyway, for the time being, just change
...
src_compile() {
local myconf
...
to
...
src_compile() {
local myconf="--enable-rtcap"
...
and you'll have them compiled in.
Just don't forget to put muse-0.6.3.ebuild in your
$PORTAGE_OVERLAY otherwise emerge sync will
silently remove all your changes
I hope this helps.

Fair enough.. each to their own.
I use debian and then install self-compiled source packages for most of
the audio stuff, since it is more cutting edge than the debs. I could
make them into debs myself but can not really be bothered.. Haven't had
any dependency tracking problems so far... Gentoo sounds a bit more fiddly
to me but I am sure it is good once you get used to it.
