Important changes in amarok 1.4.0: * amarok-engine now exists as virtual dependency that is provided by any amarok-engine-XXX pkg
* amarok-engine-arts has become obsolete - RIP * amarok-engine-gst is under heavy developement and not available for 1.4.0 - it will be probably back in 1.4.1 * amarok-engine-xine is the only engine available at the moment for arch. * there exist other engines for amarok that are not yet packaged. namely they are amarok-engine-helix amarok-engine-nmm and amarok-engine-mas - the requirements for helix are fulfilled by the helixplayer pkg in AUR but we have not yet any NMM or MAS pkgs available - if somebody wants to play with them and contribute this amarok-engines, please take the amarok-engine-xine 1.4.0 PKGBUILD as template ==> discussion on additional amarok-engines is open! - one important thing to consider: the xine engine is the most stable and most featurefull at the moment... but there are probably people around that do not like xine... or people who have managed to make NMM compile under arch (i tried but it fails compiling on our gcc :-( ... if somebody wants to work on it, i have a PKGBUILD) * additional dependencies to libifp libgpod libmp4v2 for support of iriver and apple portable music players and MP4/AAC format support * libvisual is now not mandatory dependence any more (removing gtk2 dependency), but keep in mind that visualisations will not work if you don't have libvisual + libvisual-plugins installed enjoy! greetings, Damir -- So stretch out your arms without delay and give someone a hug today.
