Thanks Michael - "yum clean all / yum update" gave me this version of
It was as simple as changing the motherboard battery. Turns out the PC
didn't want to boot when the battery had just a little power left in it,

The only two times this has been the solution for me (two different PCs,
some years apart) the PC had booted fine the previous time it was used,

Thanks, understood. Maybe a suggestion for the future, enable client
browsers to initiate updates to LMS?

That doesn't seem to offer one album per line of output. It's a neat app
though, and is easy to use.

Every now and then I search the forums to see if there is a simple,
single-click way to output a list of all the Albums I've got, sorted by

entries that were only in Spotify, and
