amixer source code?

Sun May 26, 2013 9:12 pm

Where can I find the current (1.0.25 in Raspian) amixer source code? It's probably right under my nose but I've exhausted my patience searching for it.

TIA.

Tom

You can install the sources pretty much the same as the program itself.

You have to add a deb-src line to /etc/apt/sources.list:

Code: Select all

deb-src http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
Which is almost a copy of the line that's already there. The only difference is that it has 'deb-src' instead of 'deb' at the start of the line.

Then run the following commands:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get source alsa-utils
And the source should be downloaded.

If you want to compile it you probably also have to run

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get build-dep alsa-utils
to resolve dependencies

I hope I got this right ;)

I vaguely recall reading that somewhere - now that you remind me. Brain fade...

Thanks.
