Ok, I'm giving that a go. Just one question ... in 5.34 it is x86_64-linux-thread-multi whereas in that download it is now x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Updating from 8.0.1 to 8.3.0
Hi community, this morning my LMS installation broke (again) due to the fact that Debian updated Perl from 5.32 to 5.34 and my installation of LMS 8.0.1 that was running happily for over a year broke (as always when Perl gets a major update). I looked around http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/index.php and realised that only LMS 8.3.0 has support for Perl 5.34, so I downloaded the latest logitechmediaserver_8.3.0~1644276318_amd64.deb and installed it. However, now it doesn't start up at all and even the server.log stays empty - which seems unhelpful. journalctl shows me the following lines: Feb 08 08:18:07 slim systemd[1]: Started Logitech Media Server.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Logitech Media Server 8.0.0 released!
Just for the record, I updated from a 1.5 years old 7.9.2 nightly to LMS 8.0.1 nightly now (also updating from Perl 5.30 to 5.32). I was greeted with the information that my SB Radio has broken firmware and I should patch it (Applet Installer + Patch Installer + Version Comparison Fix), which worked as documented, AFAICS. Except for WaveInput plugin v1.04 (which says it's not compatible with that version of LMS) everything seems to have started up fine.

Hi community, I've been a long-time user of LMS and I've been running the LMS 7.9 nightlies for years on a Debian GNU/Linux unstable box. >From time to time, when Debian updates Perl, I always get a headache because the CPAN/arch contents of the LMS nightly .deb has to catch up first.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Perl 5.26 support?
Ok, I thought I would give it a try, if it was that easy ...
First thing I had to fix was the "cd EV-4.*" in buildme.sh because that
expands to "cd EV-4.22 EV-4.22.tar.gz" which then does not work. That
was easy to fix.
Next problem however is (pasted from build.log):

tar zxvf Module-Build-0.4220.tar.gz
tar done
cp: cannot stat '../hints': No such file or directory

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 11.

make failed, aborting
Where in line 11 at Module-Build-0.4220/Makefile.PL I see:
BEGIN { do 'inc/bootstrap.pl' or die defined($@) ? $@ : $! }
The file Module-Build-0.4220/inc/bootstrap.pl is present and readable,
and as I do not know anything about Perl, I'm now lost what's wrong
here.
Any hints?
Luckily I tried the build with the old Perl 5.24 before updating Debian
to the current 5.26 as otherwise I would now have a broken LMS
installation.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Perl 5.26 support?
This Perl issue is really becoming more and more of a problem. I know that here on the lists instructions where given of how to compile the CPAN modules for oneself. But this had to be done whenever one installed a new version of the LMS. So, not really a choice for people using the nightlies (like me). On the other hand, https://github.com/sbellon/slimserver-vendor hasn't changed for quite some time. So, wouldn't it be possible to build the Perl modules *once* per new Perl version and reuse them whenever one installs a new nightly LMS? Problem right now is that Debian unstable (x86_64) is on Perl 5.26, but LMS does not come with CPAN binaries for 5.26, so a lot of packages have to be put "on hold" (currently 88, daily growing) which makes maintaining the system more and more complex - besides not getting security updates for packages on hold. I'd appreciate a solution to this issue very much! Greetings, Stefan ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
