[Audacity-devel] libsoxr VS libsamplerate bug

[Benjamin D. <bd...@de...>]

Hi,

I created a test package from the rc1 tarball and called configure with
--without-libresample --with-libsamplerate=system --with-libsoxr=yes.
configure told me:

configure: Using SYSTEM libraries for LIBSOXR
configure: disabling LIBRESAMPLE at your request
configure: Using the SYSTEM libraries for LIBSAMPLERATE because you specifically requested this
[...]
configure: Both libsoxr and libsamplerate were requested: favouring libsoxr
[...]
Finished configure:
[...]
LIBSOXR: disabled
LIBRESAMPLE: disabled
LIBSAMPLERATE: using SYSTEM libraries

So configure lied about favouring libsoxr, because the resulting binary
was only linked against libsamplerate.

There was a discussion about const-rare and var-rate sampling. Can
libsoxr do both and can fully replace libsamplerate?

Another question: Which resample library do you recommend
distro-packager to use and why?
