I've done all this by hand before on different machines, but I like the automation and system accounting that Debian packages always provide. I guess I've become used to the convenience of easily installing and updating Debian packages, and wanted to maintain that convenience, even if I couldn't use your nightly builds anymore due to lack of direct aarch64 support.

What I really meant was a more robust solution. Another way to copy in the latest, known config.guess file without risking a broken automake would be to use: wget -O config.guess 'http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD' or curl 'http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD' > config.guess The only assumptions used here a working wget (or curl) and an Internet connection. These extra build steps would be protected by an if [ "`uname -m`" == "aarch64" ]; then conditional, so the probability of breaking the script for existing platforms for which it works would be minimal. Any thoughts on why the above is not a good change to propose?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.00
What card are you using? 3.21 introduced a change to automatically set the card number when using alsaequal. This change assists when cards are detected in different orders, or you disable the onboard sound after setting up alsaequal. This will not work if you are manually setting things up. If there is a card that we don't have a configuration for, then the best thing to do is to create a config file for your card. Take a look at /usr/local/etc/pcp/cards And yes alsaequal locks the output setting on the squeezelite page..remove alsa equal, or manually edit the config file.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.00
Please help me to verify a bug or educate me what I'm missing Just upgraded from 3.20 to 3.22 via insitu upgrade. All went well except the to-be-expected omissions in the upgrade. So after I added the dtoverlay line in /mnt/mmcblk0p1/config.txt again, I backed up the changes and rebooted with "pcp br" and then reinstalled the ALSA 10 band Equalizer from the gui. Then I edited the /etc/asound.conf to point to my card, and tested alsa output to function OKE , after the Squeezelite restart. So it works , with the odd soundcard and equalizer as before. So far no surpises. But then the changes to /etc/asound.conf can not be retained over a system reboot. The backup does work, but it seems the restore is not done properly in the startup after a boot. Manually doing a "sudo filetool.sh -r" ( and Squeezelite restart ) proves the change is in the backup, and did not really lost it ;-) So what am I missing ? BTW the GUI field Squeezelite ; Output setting : "equal" is no longer editable, suggesting work done to prevent editing the needed settings for alsa equal after enabling.

[SlimDevices: Unix] LMS not starting after upgrading Ubuntu to 17.10 from 17.04.
It seems every time I upgrade Ubuntu, LMS breaks on me - and being a complete Linux noob I really struggle to get it working again. I did have it working nicely on Ubuntu 17.04, but after I upgraded to 17.10, the web interface was not working at all, and I started seeing this in the /var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log: ... 2017-10-22 22:29:29 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting. 2017-10-22 22:29:34 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting. 2017-10-22 22:29:39 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting. ... And if I execute this at the command prompt: squeezeboxserver Then I get this: The following modules failed to load: DBI EV XML::Parser::Expat HTML::Parser JSON::XS Digest::SHA1 Sub::Name After some time googling, I am *guessing* that this has something to do with the version of Perl that LMS needs vs the version that Ubuntu has. How can I solve this? I have tried reinstalling 7.9.0 and also installing 7.9.1.1508251793 (from the nightlies... is there a better place to get 7.9.1 from?). Neither install helped.
