Can anyone build the unix midi plugin with ALSA?

It seems to not be possible to build the MIDI plugin on unix when ALSA support is wanted. The sqUnixMIDI.c file tries to use ‘USE_MIDI_ALSA’ to decide whether to include null code or actual ALSA calling code - that seems to fail.

If we manually fudge it to force use of sqUnixMIDIALSA.inc then we fall foul of ‘debugf’ not being defined and the best I could do there was replace with ‘DPRINTF’. Which implies to me that it is a long time since anyone even made a working midi unix plugin.

Anyone got any ideas?

Always try to be modest. And be damn proud of it!

     Well, at least a long time since anyone did it without those
workarounds. :)  As we've seen, the plugin does seem to work once you do
those things.
