Package: sidplayfp
Severity: wishlist
Version: 1.3.1-1

Hi,

I tried using sidplayfp to play sid files, but it stayed silent and also
displayed that it can't find the ROMs:

> +------------------------------------------------------+
> | Kernal ROM   : None - Some tunes may not play!       |
> | BASIC ROM    : None - Basic tunes will not play!     |
> | Chargen ROM  : None                                  |
> +------------------------------------------------------+

In the README of the source I found the following:

> NOTE:
> -----
> ROM dumps are no longer embedded but must be supplied by the user.
> The ROMs are optional and most tune should work fine without
> but compatibility is not guaranteed.
> Check the sidplayfp.ini documentation for configuration details
> and default search paths.

So I looked into the manpage of sidplayfp.ini how I can specify the paths
to the ROMs (which I already installed for VICE).
There it was also not clear where the sidplayfp.ini is actually located
(After some research I found it here: ~/.config/sidplayfp/sidplayfp.ini).

It would be nice if you could improve the documentation a bit what is
necessary to get it working (and point to the sidplayfp.ini manpage).

Kind regards,
 Reiner
