aoTuV on Debian Options

[klonuo]

I got nero, and lame setup and now I want aoTuV

Googling I found that RareWares has Debian repository, but unfortunately this now probably serves as historic archive, no longer maintained for some reasons, so nothing there

I downloaded latest aoTuV src and build those libraries

What to do now?

I then downloaded vorbis-tools 1.4.0 but just can't see how to compile oggenc with auTuV libraries (/usr/local/lib/) instead default ones (those that come with Debian in /usr/lib/)

?

The aoTuV libraries can be used as a drop in replacement for the official ones.
The oggenc binary is dynamically linked against libvorbis, so you should be able to do something like this:

CODE

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/aoTuv/libraries oggenc

Try ogginfo on the encoded files. It should say "aoTuv" somewhere.

Excellent!
Thanks for the tip

I wrote this script to automate creating a static oggenc build. [1] I call it "mkoggenc.sh".

You are supposed to unpack the aoTuV and vorbis-tools tarballs, and run it like this: "./mkoggenc.sh aotuv-b6.02_20110227 vorbis-tools-1.4.0" (the directories they unpacked to). It worked for me at least on aoTuV 6.02 and vorbis-tools 1.4.0, on Debian Squeeze.

CODE

#!/bin/sh

set -e

# a directory containing vorbis lib (aotuv) source code
# and vorbis-tools source code
LIB=$1
TOOLS=$2
BASE=`pwd`

LIB_FULL=$BASE/$LIB

if [ "x$LIB" = "x" ] || [ "x$TOOLS" = "x" ]; then
        echo "syntax: $0 <aotuv-dir> <vorbis-tools-dir>"
fi

# aotuv
cd $LIB
sh configure
make

# vorbis-tools
cd $BASE/$TOOLS
./configure \
        --with-vorbis-libraries=$LIB_FULL/lib/.libs/ \
        --with-vorbis-includes=$LIB_FULL/include/ \
        --disable-shared \
        --enable-static

sed -i 's/^LDFLAGS =/LDFLAGS = -static /' oggenc/Makefile

make

if [ -x oggenc/oggenc ]; then
        echo "Your shiny new oggenc is located at:"
        echo $BASE/$TOOLS/oggenc/oggenc
fi

I notice it breaks if there's any whitespace in the directory path. Ah well.

[1] It's not completely static -- but at least the aoTuV library is linked to statically, which should be enough. And you do need the relevant dev packages installed, e.g. to compile in FLAC support. "apt-get build-dep libvorbis vorbis-tools" should do it.
