Compile QTractor without JACK?

Hi, first thanks for all the good software around. I've ported QMidiCtl and QXGEdit for OpenPandora ARM handheld successfully (http://www.openpandora.org). I'm now trying to compile the Qtractor but OpenPandora doesn't have JACK (ALSA only) so I tried to disable it during configure but it seems that the JACK is still required.


./configure --prefix=[MYPATH] --disable-jack-session --disable-lv2 --without-jack

I'm getting this:


.
..
...
checking for main in -ljack... no
configure: error: JACK library not found.

Similar thing happens when I try to compile SynthV1.

I intend to use Qtractor as an MIDI sequencer only with no audio.

Is there a way to completely disable JACK during compilation process?

Thanks!

no way. jack is fundamental to qtractor and thus mandatory.

sorry

Thanks for the quick answer. No need to apologize, I was expecting it little bit :)

I don't want to start another thread for asking the same about synthv1. How can I disable/opt-out the JACK for synth1? Same or similar variations of configure line above didn't help.

try it from current svn trunk; the build separation is more straight-forward.

./configure --disable-jack
make
make install

otherwise the last two steps have been:

make lv2
make install_lv2

cheers
