Portaudio bug

Post by nichot20 »

There is a bug in the default version of Portaudio shipped with Mint 20.1 which can result in the following error:-

Code: Select all

src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c:3641: PaAlsaStreamComponent_BeginPolling: Assertion `ret == self->nfds' failed
This bug was patched in 19.6.0-1.1 which is what Ubuntu Groovy ships with. However, Focal on which I believe Mint 20.1 is based is still using 19.6.0-1build1.

Ubuntu do not seem to have backported the fix into their LTS release so I am wondering what the neatest way of incorporating the patched version into Mint would be without getting into all sorts of version and dependency issues and breaking of updates.
