Vestige dont work in linux mint 17

Vestige dont work in linux mint 17, 17.1, etc.
Wine has been installed before.
Why?

[tresf]

Why?

We don't know and furthermore, we don't package for this platform. You should tell us where you got it so we can recommend the best escalation path.

What platform then it is better to use?

KXStudio repositories for Ubuntu, Debian.

Sorry, perhaps I was unclear.... Your platform of choice is terrific to use, we just don't package LMMS ourselves for it. Someone else does that. This is most common in the Linux world. We do package the Windows and Mac versions because they can be run on nearly any Windows/Mac versions. Linux packaging is usually specific to the Linux version you run. For now, we don't package our Ubuntu/Debian/KXStudio installers or any other Linux installers for that matter.

KXStudio repositories for Ubuntu, Debian.

Ok, thanks. That is maintained by the KXStudio team so they are the best people to contact in regards to problems.

I'll ping a project maintainer for you out of courtesy. @falkTX, how best to escalate this problem?

[falkTX]

If you're using the KXStudio repositories, make sure "lmms-vst-full" package is installed.
And also that you have a working Wine.

Not much that I can say, lmms + vestige still working fine here.

[Khomkovm]

Thanks falkTX, tresf, everything is working fine now.
The problem was in lack of "lmms-vst-full".
That is great, thank you! I truly appreciate all your help.

The same happens on Arch, you have to get lmms-vst or lmms-git from AUR to get lmms with VST support.

[tresf]

@badosu can you confirm this command so that we can add it to our downloads page.

sudo pacman -S lmms-vst

[badosu]

@tresf AUR is user repositories for Arch, so it's not available via pacman by default.

The user must install a pacman wrapper, see this list, or enable the community repo for pacman.

In my case I use yaourt so my command is yaourt -S lmms-vst.

[tresf]

yaourt -S pacman-vst

Is this a typo for:

yaourt -S lmms-vst

[badosu]

It is, sorry : ).

This should be fixed in the future, see: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/41302

[badosu]

Anyway, I guess we can close this one, right?

[badosu]

@tresf Instead of changing the pacman command, just point the user to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LMMS where the issues are described.

[tresf]

@badosu, thank you kindly. Done via LMMS/lmms.io@84c47bc

Direct links to the page content:

Please let me know if you find any errors.

[badosu]

@tresf Great! Thanks!

Just be aware that you used a h3 probably where it would be better to use a h4 as the VST support section is related to the Arch instructions..

[tresf]

@badosu yeah, I went back and forth between <h3> and <h4>. <h4> didn't look right either... 😕

[badosu]

@tresf It's cool
