Your post prompted me to try out mpd. It's a tremendous improvement over Thunderbird. The OpenSolaris developers should make it and gmpc the default music applications for osol: the client-server model makes mpd very Unixy.
Anyway, libmad and mpd built without problems on my box running snv_125. As servo mentions above, there are official packages of vorbis and flac. I didn't bother with ffmpeg. My PATH is /usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/gnu/bin:/opt/csw/bin export CC=gcc-4.3.2 export CFLAGS=-m64 (if you have a 64-bit system) ./configure; gmake; gmake install For mpd, you need to use "./configure --with-zeroconf=no" because osol doesn't have 64-bit binaries for libsoup. The only hitch was that the linker complained about 64-bit modules. I got around that by executing the link command by hand, adding "-m64" to it. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
