Compile mplayer with JACK support on thinkpad.

2024-06-30 11:39: Oh, right. I need to build mplayer form source #voxbox-shape-morphing #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

This thinkpad isn't fully provisioned yet. Upstream mplayer doesn't have jack support, so I need to build it from source.

I remember this taking a while. Uh, maybe I should look at other things.

Nevermind? It just finsihed as I wrote this. That's not a great sign.

Ran into build issues. Great. Downloading from git, using the APKBUILD as hints.

MPlayer is kinda SVN? But this build script is using git?

2024-06-30 12:01: Going to try building the package instead of source. #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

Not what I wanted to do, but here we are.

Bandwidth is slow even at the hub. git feels slow too. I wonder how much faster it'd be on a newer laptop.

2024-06-30 12:19: It builds! But I wasn't sure how to install it #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

Build time wasn't too bad, so I'm rebuilding.

2024-06-30 12:20: Where is "pkgdir"? #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

Package installed in packages/community/x86_64.

2024-06-30 12:24: attempting to install manually #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

Can be done with apk add foo.apk. I don't think I needed the --allow-untrusted flag because it was self-signed.

2024-06-30 12:26: works! #mplayer-jack-thinkpad

I love how straightforward that was.
