Its hard to discover which version Mixxx is currently installed because the bzr revision is not displayed in builds from http://builds.mixxx.org/builds/trunk/
(Not in the GUI and also not in Terminal)

Debug [Main]: Mixxx 1.11.0-alpha2 "(built on: May 8 2012 @ 03:58:18; flags: hid
hifieq mad optimize=9 qdebug shoutcast vamp verbose vinylcontrol)" is starting.
..

Wy not always display the bzr revision, also in release builds?

Hi RJ
I have tested it only on Ubuntu 64 and 32.
It looks like the build server fails to write buid.h

Deleting deprecated build file: /tmp/buildd/mixxx-1.10.1-alpha/src/build.h
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "/tmp/buildd/mixxx-1.10.1-alpha/lin32_build/".
ERROR: Could not determine branch name from output of 'bzr info'. Please file a bug with the output of 'bzr info' attached.
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "/tmp/buildd/mixxx-1.10.1-alpha/lin32_build/".

bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "/tmp/buildd/mixxx-1.10.1-alpha/lin32_build/".

Didn't we moved the build.h to the temporaty build folder?

I think we must also find a solution for tarball builds.
Can you try to generate the build.h at add it to the tarball?

Thank you,

Daniel

Windows build is not effected.

I am working on a solution for tarball builds!

here it is:

The patch creates a lastbzrbuild.h in src folder. It is written at build time when bzr is able to collect the revision info.
It is intended to checkin this file. It is used to generate the bzr info when a tarball build is done.

Maybe its al little annoying tat this file will be changed in every check-in. A better solution is to generate a file like this by a server side hook script, but I think hook scripts are not possible in Launchpad.

Another option would be to create such a file just before packing the official tarball. Bit this does not cover the case when downloading a tarball from launchpad.

Additional I have moved the version things to a separate file to save some compile time. Also it was a little frustrating how long it takes for my netbook to compile such a simple class :-(

The original bug seems to be an issue on our buildverver. It looks like the .bzr folder was lost before calling scons.
@RJ: can you have a look, Thank you!

Hi RJ,

Ok, my new lastbzrbuild.h is a candidate for continuous conflicts. So this solution is more annoying then it helps for now.
We should consider how we can put this file in our official source package and triag the tracability in case of Launchpad tarball downloads.

I think a scons option, only set by our build server could be a solution.
What do you think?

Kind regards,

Daniel

I agree -- I think the fix should be done on the build server just limited
to the Ubuntu packaging portion of the sconscript. Maybe we can include
build.h when we build the source tarball.

Hi RJ,
I have no access to the build server scripts.
Will you take care of it or what else can I do?

Should be fixed since lp:mixxx/1.11 #⁠3370.
Tested with 1.11.0-beta2-pre (build r3419) on Ubuntu 64 Precise.
Thank you RJ!
