Ok, it's official. Libmusicbrainz4c2a will no longer work. It used the old RDF web service: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/?title=libmusicbrainz&oldid=41766#Version_2.x "This version of the client library uses the old RDF web service and should not be used in new development." When NGS was introduced, the RDF web service was removed. > If that's the case, what's the procedure for getting this 'old' libmb4 > package removed, and a new one put in its place? I guess this is the key question now. What's the procedure for having all the musicbrainz 2.x libraries (and their dependancies) removed from Debian? Once they're removed, could I then use the libmusicbrainz4 name? Cheers Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
