[Solved] audio cd with xmms2

Question

Hello,
I would like to play audio cd with xmms2 but it's not possible with the versions in AUR. To play audio cd I need the cdda support. I was told, that I need to modifiy the PKGBUILD in:
./waf configure --prefix=/usr --with-plugins cdda || return 1
On the install page from xmms2 it's written that libdiscid and libcdio are needed for the cdda support:
http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Ins … structions
So I installed both packages, modified the PKGBUILD and tried to compile. But I get the following:
Checking for program g++ : ok /usr/bin/g++
Checking for program cpp : ok /usr/bin/cpp
Checking for program ar : ok /usr/bin/ar

The following required plugin(s) failed to configure: cdda
==> ERROR: Build Failed.
Aborting...
Error: Makepkg was unable to build xmms2-git package.
At the moment I use xmms2-git because I have some problems with the package xmms2. So libcdio_cdda isn't found. On my system I have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30526 2008-03-19 22:23 /usr/lib/libcdio_cdda.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2008-03-19 22:23 /usr/lib/libcdio_cdda.so -> libcdio_cdda.so.0.0.3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2008-03-19 22:23 /usr/lib/libcdio_cdda.so.0 -> libcdio_cdda.so.0.0.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 29287 2008-03-19 22:23 /usr/lib/libcdio_cdda.so.0.0.3
So I think that I have everything. I assume there is a path problem. How I can know if during the ./configure step /usr/lib/ is checked ? I also try with the option --conf-prefix:
Will configure your build. Interesting options:
--prefix <path> : tells waf to put the installation in path
--conf-prefix <path> : tells waf to append -I<path>/include and -L<path>/lib before trying to compile anything
--without-plugins <list> : disable all the plugins in list.
--without-xmms2d 1|0 : disable xmms2d
--without-optionals <list> : disable all the optionals in the list.
--nocache : rerun all configuration tests.
-p : show a useless but cool progress bar when building!
but I got no results. Did somebody succeed to activate the cdda plugin for xmms2 ? Or does anybody have an idea about what's wrong ?
Thanks.

Answer 1

I downloaded xmms2 from the website and tried to configure it and the cdda plugin were detected. So I tried once again with
./waf configure --prefix=/usr --with-plugins cdda || return 1
and the plugin were detected !?!?!?!
With that command it seems that less plugins are enabled. I also had so problem to start xmms2 because I got some errors. At the end I did:
./waf configure --prefix=/usr || return 1
and I restart xmms2 and all is fine now!!!! I can eventually listen to my cd with xmms2!
