Hello
There's the following issue with scanner.pl (and only scanner.pl, not
slimserver.pl) from SC 7.0-2007-10-30 (and probably previous) on
ppc/Linux 2.6 (SSODS), perl 5.8.8 etc.
Code:
--------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /volume1/SlimServer/Slim # perl
/volume1/SlimServer/scanner.pl
The following CPAN modules were found but cannot work with SqueezeCenter:
Compress::Zlib (loaded 1.41, need 1.41)
To fix this problem you have several options:
1. Install the latest version of the module(s) using CPAN: sudo cpan
Some::Module
2. Update the module's package using apt-get, yum, etc.
3. Run the .tar.gz version of SqueezeCenter which includes all required CPAN
modules.
--------------------
Shouldn't 1.41 be enough? And I even have 1.42:
Code:
--------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /volume1/SlimServer # perl
use Compress::Zlib;
print Compress::Zlib->VERSION;
1.42
--------------------
And it also works:
Code:
--------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /volume1/SlimServer/Slim # perl
use Compress::Zlib;
$a = compress("oinkzwurgl");
$b = uncompress($a);
printf "$b\n";
oinkzwurgl
--------------------
I've been told that the problem occurs since a couple of days. I looked
at the last couple of changes in Slim/bootstrap.pm and didn't find
anything suspicious. And I don't completely grok the code in sub
check_valid_versions(), where I think the root of all evil lies (btw,
check my number of posts :-)
Not sure if the following is a good test (if I am right, this is what
check_valid_version() does):
Code:
--------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /volume1/SlimServer # perl -W
eval "use Compress::Zlib";
print "-->" . ([EMAIL PROTECTED]"true":"false") . "\n";
eval { Compress::Zlib->VERSION(1.41||0); 1; };
print "==>" . ([EMAIL PROTECTED]"true":"false") . "\n";
-->false
==>false
--------------------
I don't understand how the routine returns a $failed array (or hash or
whatever this is called in Perl) which contains "Compress::Zlib" and
"1.41".
Any hint where I should look and how to debug is appreciated.
