                    cvs/2004/05/0228.html breaks jack_fst
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-loader

I've been using jack_fst for some time with older versions of Wine. I've wanted
to update and use more recent versions but I found that I couldn't use anything
more recent than wine-20040505 without causing jack_fst to segfault.

Today, following the chapter on regression testing and with Duane Clark's help I
plowed my way through the individual updates and discovered that it was the
following update that causes my problems:

As I am not a programmer I am going to have a hard time figuring out what the
problem is, and likewise since the problem requires the use of a lot of
non-Linux Windows VSTs I think it will be difficult for you to set up the
failure. I'm very willing to try fixes and install patches to test this out and
fix the problem so that I can use wine-20041019.

This machine is Gentoo, but I've seen the same problem on FC2.

Gentoo2 root # emerge info
Portage 2.0.51_rc9 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r2,
2.6.8-gentoo-r3 i686)

I am using NPTL.

jack_fst and fst itself are available at:

I do not suggest that you try setting this program up as it's instructions are
currently out of date. Rather, please take advantage of me and I'll do the
testing quickly.

While this may seem like a bit of an obscure program, having it run correctly is
of a lot of interest to the Linux audio community as it begins to make available
100's if not 1000's of Windows VSTs.

It will also help in getting a lot of Linux audio users up to the latest version
of Wine instead of back in 2003 versions that they use today.
