SID Factory II
Laxity and I have decided to go BETA with SID Factory II to let all curious SID composers also have a go at this cross-platform SID editor.
We have a Facebook group that you are welcome to join. There's also a nifty user manual there. If you're not on Facebook, this thread should serve as another place where we can share questions, ideas, music, bugs, new builds, additional files, etc.
Please note that although SID Factory II is quite stable and more than capable of editing SID tunes at this point, it is still missing a few essential things such as e.g. sub tunes. We have a solid ToDo and will post new builds here as they become available.
The first official BETA build: SIDFactoryII_20200604.zip |

Haha, here (KDE/Konqueror) it says sf2 is an executable program, and will not be started because of security reasons =D
Would have never noticed, i always run those things from cmdline anyway :) |

A filthy workaround would be to create a .desktop file:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Version=2.0
Name=Sid Factory II
Comment=SID music editor
Path=/home/compyx/temp/SIDFactoryII_Source_20200718_Makefiles
Exec=/home/compyx/temp/SIDFactoryII_Source_20200718_Makefiles/sf2
Terminal=false
Categories=Audio;AudioVideo
Write that as ~/.local/applications/SIDFactoryII.desktop
Obviously alter the Path and Exec parameters, and perhaps add Icon=<some-icon-file>
This should present "Sid Factory II" in the 'Sound & Video' submenu of an XDG compliant desktop's menu. (You may have to log out and back in).
Ofcourse this is a filthy hack and doesn't solve the problem. The problem is why the code needs -fPIC in the first place? |

That hack also works for Gnome Hell, SID Factory II shows up in the garbage display that is Gnome Hell's "overview" of applications. Also works on Gnome Classic. |

As someone living quite happily in "Gnome Hell" I wouldn't consider .desktop files a "hack", but the "way to go" anyway ;-)
Btw.: when I switch to XFCE Thunar won't open binary files here too.
And what groepaz said :-)
And last but not least here VICE is also pie:
[spider@havarie bin]$ file x64sc
x64sc: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=a965e4d950f6e083819728e464d09cba0575b793, with debug_info, not stripped

Well, .desktop files aren't a hack ofcourse, but using them when a file manager refuses to open a binary is, a bit, it hides the problem.
And I would also have never noticed sf2 not running from a file manager, I run most stuff from a terminal as well.
That said, can you run x64sc from a file manager with it being a 'pie'? |

Quoting CompyxThat said, can you run x64sc from a file manager with it being a 'pie'?
No, not in Nautilus, not in Thunar.
And the only binaries that are *not* pie on both of my computers are the GNU compilers. Everything else in /usr/bin is pie. |

Ah, my current compiles of vice are done with clang-10/11. Let's see what the old gcc 9.3 does. |

Fuck, yep. GCC also produces pies. |

Hack by Compyx gives me :)
"Failed to execute command "~/SidfactoryII/sf2" (not a directory)" |

Does that path exist?
Wouldn't surprise me if ~ doesn't get expanded to /home/$USER. So perhaps use the full path? |
