Yeah, the .1 release, which I have discussed with the upstream developer, contains fixes to bugs which would cause the plugins to crash Ardour. Another problem that was causing Ardour to crash is the old, abandoned, and deprecated calf-ladspa package (deprecated per upstream). The problem mostly happens when the two are installed at the same time, so I made the package such that the two cannot be installed at the same time at the author's request. As for everything else, I'll get to it. :) > If you're unsure about your changes, it would be best to create a merge > request on salsa instead of pushing directly to the repository (also, > you do not need to be a team member to create an MR). > > This thread was the last thing mentioning calf packaging: > https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-multimedia-maintainers/2017-November/061765.html > > Jonas said he was going to look at it.
