Sox and Jaunty for debian/ubuntu packages for Rivendell 1.4.0

Two news for Debian and Ubuntu Rivendell users :

A new release 1.4.0-2 of debian/ubuntu packages fixes a problem with Sox 14.2 in import and export. The old Sox 12 has been packaged and is used by import/export Rivendell scripts.

After a discussion on french rivendell irc channel (#rivendell-fr) with Ayoli and Raps, Rivendell packages are now available for Ubuntu Jaunty on debian.tryphon.org.

Update: as specified in comments, there are several problems to run Rivendell under Jaunty (Ubuntu or Kubuntu 9.04) . Try to use the previous release Intreprid (Ubuntu / Kubuntu 8.10).

For geeks, reports and tests under Jaunty are welcome on #rivendell and Rivendell mailing-list.

    First tests under Jaunty are not successful for the moment. Caed (one of the rivendell daemons) experiences problems with alsa.

    Please visit the irc channel (#rivendell on freenode) before using Rivendell under jaunty. Prefer previous Ubuntu releases for the moment.

    Thanks to BrixSat for his patience ;-)

    My Rivendell Hardy Ubuntu box has now upgraded to Rivendell 1.4.0-2 and the rdimport appears to be broken now. If have it set to Normalise the soun d to -13db but it doesn’t reduce the volume. It leaves it at 0db.

    Is it possible to install the earlier Rivendell 1.4.0-1hardy1? It works quite nicely with sox 14.0.0-5.
    If so where can I get these packages?
