[osol-discuss] songbird bug

2010-12-08 Thread Mike DeMarco
When I upgraded from b134 to b151a Songbird hit a bug that makes it play the 
second song over and over again. I tried to go into the b134 repository and 
download that version but even though I as in the 134 repository my system kept 
installing from the b151 repository. How can I install from an older repository?

Thanks
mike

That won't work.  The install links provided there are intentionally not 
versioned so that the user's system will determine the right version to 
install.

You can't do this.  The way the system is packaged currently 
intentionally prevents you from installing older versions on your system.


In particular, given Songbird's tight integration with various Mozilla 
libraries, it would be unlikely to work anyway.

I also just tried my Songbird, and get the same repeating of the second song 
with Sol Ex 11 b151a.

Let us know if getting the b134 version works.

As a temporary solution (or permanent if it never gets fixed) I installed 
gnome-media-player (aka Rhythmbox 0.12.8).  I exported the playlist I had in 
Songbird and imported it into Rhythmbox and it works.  Not as much eye candy but 
functional.

Songbird is being removed in build 156 since the upstream stopped
supporting Linux/Unix platforms:

http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/jds-review/2010-December/004042.html

(Of course, the sources  spec files are available for those who
 build from spec-files-extra or if anyone wanted to maintain prebuilt
 packages to share with others.)

I've noticed that Nightingale has started posting source.

Any interest in continuing from there?

The people involved in the new Nightingale can probably be found on
irc.mozilla.org. From what I understand, POTI is also generally
supportive of these efforts.

Alfred, Steve, and I did the original Songbird port to OpenSolaris
(also ironically called Project Nightingale), and while I don't have
time to work on this now, I can provide resources (build systems and
project hosting) for anyone interested.

I'm CC'ing this over to desktop-discuss since that's the more specific
list for this.
