The Mixxx 2.3 beta was released in June, though I haven't been able to find an
estimated release date for the final version. For porting, the major change is
a transition to CMake for the build instead of SCons (see bug 247189).

I've opened this bug to document changes for building Mixxx 2.3 with CMake,
currently with the latest git snapshot of the 2.3 branch. I think most changes
for porting the (upcoming) new version will just be adaptations of the existing
patches for the new build system.

Here's what I've done so far to try to make it build:

- add security/qtkeychain, sysutils/upower, comms/hidapi as dependencies. (Some
of these are patched out in the current port.)

- portmidi: rather than patching this out, I think the best solution would be
to add a new portmidi port. After downloading the sources, I tried the
following changes to build:

   - configure script using ccmake is interactive. I had to manually specify
the JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH and JAVA_JVM_LIBRARY paths as described in
`portmidi/trunk/pm_linux/README_LINUX.txt`. The paths depend on the installed
JDK version. There must be a good way to do this automatically. In my case,
these paths are: JAVA_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/openjdk8/include and
JAVA_JVM_LIBRARY=/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so
   - add `/usr/local/include` to `include_directories` on line 68 of
portmidi/trunk/CMakeLists.txt
   - set the env variable LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib in order to find asound
library from alsa, may be better to instead patch in the `-L/usr/local/lib`
flag throughout the source files
   - patch two functions using deprecated `ftime` to use `gettimeofday` in
`porttime/ptlinux.c` (c.f. https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=15724).

  For the default make target, I get this error around 93%:
    make[2]: don't know how to make pm_java/jportmidi/JPortMidi.class. Stop

  It is possible to patch out portmidi: keep existing patch to
controllers/controllermanager.cpp, remove REQUIRED keyword in CMakeLists.txt
for PortMidi, comment out `portmidicontroller.cpp` and `portmidienumerator.cpp`
around line 2365 of CMakeLists.txt. However, this causes build failures later
on that I haven't yet figured out.

- use system libusb. I'm not sure how to make this happen in CMakeLists.txt
(see lines around 2260). I don't use a USB controller, and configure succeeds
if the feature is disabled (cmake -DHID=off ...). It should be possible to pass
the flags '-DLIBUSB_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include
-DLIBUSB_LIBRARIES=/usr/lib/libusb.so' to the configure command, but this fails
in logic around lib-hdiapi.

- add include directory for ogg.h in libshout. There may be a better way to do
this, but I just added `/usr/local/include` to `include_directories` in
`lib/libshout/CMakeLists.txt`.

- change `endian.h` to `sys/endian.h`, and `byteswap.h` to
`infiniband/byteswap.h` in lib/kaitai/kaitaistream.cpp

With these changes (patching out portmidi since I haven't succeded in building
it yet), mixxx 2.3 configures successfully and builds partially (12%), failing
eventually with:
