--- Comment #2 from Orcan 'oget' Ogetbil orcanbahri@yahoo.com 2008-10-22 02:31:15 EDT --- Hi Simon, I checked the hg copy of snowballz. It looks like they changed a lot of dependencies. Besides rabbyt, snowballz will now depend on pyglet, which depends on avlib, which depends on ffmeg, which is not in Fedora.
So, I think a 3rd party repo will be a better place to put snowballz. I will ask the ffmpeg developer of rpmfusion if he could deal with avlib. After that's done we can take care of pyglet and finally of snowballz. Do you have an rpmfusion account?

--- Comment #5 from Hans de Goede hdegoede@redhat.com 2008-11-17 05:37:34 EDT --- Erm, I really so no reason for this to go to rpmfusion. Yes the current development version of snowballz requires pyglet, which can use avbin (not avlib but avbin!), it CAN use that, as it is python using ctypes, it will dynamically try to load it when needed.
However pyglet will work fine without avbin, it just wont be able to play video and compressed audio files.
Now the latter may be a problem as the hg versions of snowballz contains a few music files, some in .ogg other in .mp3 format. This is not an unrecoverable problem though, the mp3's can be converted to ogg before being put into Fedora, and either snowballz, or preferably pyglet can (and should) be patched to support ogg files without needing avbin. I'm use the pyglet developers when this is discussed with them will be very understanding about the need for free distro's like Fedora and Debian to be able to play back ogg files without requiring avbin.

--- Comment #6 from Orcan 'oget' Ogetbil orcanbahri@yahoo.com 2008-11-17 10:30:44 EDT --- I'm not sure Hans. I talked to the main avbin developer, who is also the main pyglet developer. He doesn't want to work on such issues. But he says he would accept patches. You're free to try your chances with him :)

I'm not sure Hans. I talked to the main avbin developer, who is also the main pyglet developer. He doesn't want to work on such issues. But he says he would accept patches.
If he will accept patches (to pyglet) to support .ogg using other means then avbin, then clearly the right way to proceed with this is to do this in Fedora, and write a patch for pyglet to support ogg/vorbis audio playback. Similar work has been done for many other games in Fedora.

--- Comment #8 from Orcan 'oget' Ogetbil orcanbahri@yahoo.com 2008-11-19 00:56:31 EDT --- If you have the will and the energy, go for it. I don't want to dig into the pyglet code, but I can be the reviewer if someone does.
