Package: fluidsynth Version: 1.1.11-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, I was trying to play a midi file with: fluidsynth -a pulseaudio sample.mid but this can never work. fluidsynth tries to get the soundfont from /usr/share/soundfonts/default.sf2 which is hardcoded into the executable, but this directory doesn't exist under Debian. I thought I might be able to override the default by modifying /etc/default/fluidsynth but it doesn't appear that that file gets read at all (I used strace and looked for open() and openat() calls). It looks like fluidsynth can read config from $HOME/.fluidsynth or /etc/fluidsynth.conf but I couldn't work out how to set the soundfont - there is a setting "synth.default-soundfont" but that appears to be hard-coded in src/synth/fluid_synth.c I can obviously fix the problem by creating a link from /usr/share/soundfonts/default.sf2 to e.g. /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 but this isn't very satisfactory. Is there a mechanism in Debian for setting a default soundfount? This could be used by gstreamer too. My suggestion would be to add a default soundfont to e.g. /etc/alteratives and then modify the hard-coded path in cmake_admin/DefaultDirs.cmake to use it. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages fluidsynth depends on: ii libc6 2.28-5 ii libfluidsynth1 1.1.11-1 Versions of packages fluidsynth recommends: ii qsynth 0.5.0-2 fluidsynth suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/fluidsynth changed: SOUND_FONT=/usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 -- no debconf information
