it appears a one-character typo in the cmake_minimum_required line prevents it from compiling under CMake 4.0. in order to fix that, I had to take this thing out of submodules... it is recommended to do this after you pull; git submodule deinit extern/libsndfile

# Reporting Bugs in libsndfile
|
|
|
|
Before even attempting to report a bug in libsndfile please make sure you have
|
|
read the [Frequently Asked Questions](FAQ.md). If you are having a problem
|
|
writing code using libsndfile make sure you read the
|
|
[Application Programming Interface](api.md) documentation.
|
|
|
|
That said, I am interested in finding and fixing all genuine bugs in libsndfile.
|
|
Bugs I want to fix include any of the following problems (and probably others):
|
|
|
|
- Compilation problems on new platforms.
|
|
- Errors being detected during the `make check` process.
|
|
- Segmentation faults occurring inside libsndfile.
|
|
- libsndfile hanging when opening a file.
|
|
- Supported sound file types being incorrectly read or written.
|
|
- Omissions, errors or spelling mistakes in the documentation.
|
|
|
|
When submitting a bug report you must include:
|
|
|
|
- Your system (CPU and memory size should be enough).
|
|
- The operating system you are using.
|
|
- Whether you are using a package provided by your distribution or you compiled
|
|
it yourself.
|
|
- If you compiled it yourself, the compiler you are using. (Also make sure to
|
|
run `make check`.)
|
|
- A description of the problem.
|
|
- Information generated by the sndfile-info program (see next paragraph).
|
|
- If you are having problems with sndfile-play and ALSA on Linux, I will need
|
|
information about your kernel, ALSA version, compiler version, whether you
|
|
compiled the kernel/ALSA your self or installed from a package etc.
|
|
|
|
If libsndfile compiles and installs correctly but has difficulty reading a
|
|
particular file or type of file you should run the **sndfile-info** program
|
|
(from the examples directory of the libsndfile distribution) on the file. See
|
|
[here](sndfile_info.md) for an example of the use of the **sndfile-info**
|
|
program.
|
|
|
|
Please do not send me a sound file which fails to open under libsndfile unless
|
|
I specifically ask you to. The above information should usually suffice for most
|
|
problems.
|
|
|
|
Once you have the above information you should submit a ticket on the libsndfile
|
|
[GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/libsndfile/libsndfile/issues).
