<h2><a name="midi">The Python midi module</a></h2>
|
|
<p>The normal procedure for building a Python module
|
|
applies:</p>
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
tar xvzf midi-0.2.1.tar.gz
|
|
cd midi-0.2.1
|
|
python setup.py build
|
|
sudo python setup.py install
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>However, the midi module includes an alsa driver interface
|
|
which needs Swig to build and probably does not build at all
|
|
on recent Linux versions (the last version for the package
|
|
dates from 2006). Recoll does not need midi sequencer hardware
|
|
:), so if you don't need for other purposes, you can disable
|
|
the Alsa interface by editing setup.py and changing the
|
|
platform name at line 37 (the Alsa thing is only tried on
|
|
Linux):</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
37c37
|
|
< if platform.startswith('linux'):
|
|
---
|
|
> if platform.startswith('NONE'):
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The package should then build and install just fine.</p>
