On Wheezy you won't have much issues. If you want to run on the server on an ARM device, you most probably have to compile at least the Logitech versions of faad and flac. These are heavily patched by Logitech and Triode. sox you can also compile or you take the binary that comes via Wheezy.

Thanks. I did the Squeeze -- Wheezy upgrade over the weekend, which I neglected to mention also involved changing out the hard drive (I wanted to install a larger drive and re-purpose the one I had been using). LMS installation was very smooth. I still need to re-install MusicIP and attend to

Ah, yes, thanks. squeezelite is another one still on the to-do list. I was running squeezelite under Debian Squeeze (via the Local Player plugin) and want to set it up under Wheezy. I'll check out that newer LIBC. With Squeeze I needed to tweak permissions to access audio devices to get

Thanks. As dsdreamer says, it seems that Wheezy (debian 7.x) comes with perl 5.14.2. One of the things I really like about debian for an LMS platform is that it's never on the bleeding edge (unless you play around with unstable).

Hi all. I'm planning to upgrade my LMS box from Debian Squeeze (6.x) to Wheezy (7.x). Any gotcha's I need to look out for when it comes to running LMS? I no longer follow the bleeding edge of LMS nightly releases (though the work on 7.9 does look exciting). Thanks!
