Can someone please help me understand if I should use Unix tarball or
Unix tarball(No CPAN libraries).
My case:
I'm having a hard time getting my latest installation on FreeBSD after a
hardware failure to play Apple Lossless files. The good old "decoder
does not support file format" error in the server log. In the past I was
on lms 7.8 and after replacing a the faad binary with a precompiled one
from solved the problem. I must have been lucky then.
I've had to reinstall from scratch. Created a new FreeBSD jail based on
FreeBSD 10.3-amd64. Followed a post to install required packages
including faad2, build from slimserver-vendor, build, merge with a
noCPAN nightly. All this process completes and the server starts and I
can play most of my music except those pesky m4a files.
I think the initial installation of faad2 from FreeBSD repos installs
the non slimdevices-patched version of faad2. But I've been unable to
installed the patched version.
After the merging with noCPAN I end up with a faad2 directory inside the
path I created for lms
/usr/local/lms/slimserver-vendor-public-7.9/faad2/ but there are no
binaries there. When I run the shell script buildme-linux.sh it
completes successfully after patching with the included patch, echoes
"Configuring", followed by "Running make" and then "Running make
install". But I can not find a compiled faad2 binary anywhere from /
down. There is no alternative path to give to the buildme-linux.sh
file.
I've also replaced the faad2 binary from the same nightly into the path
where the other binaries are found /usr/local/bin/. No joy, I still
can't play the files.
Executing faad2 from within this directory (trying different binaries
one at the time), some give me missing linked binaries errors like
Code:
--------------------
root@Slimnas:/usr/local/bin # faad_original
"shared object "libfaad.so.2" not found, required by "faad_original"
--------------------
or if it works when I give it a file to decode, then it fails unable to
read the file.
Code:
--------------------
root@Slimnas:/usr/local/bin # faad_backup1 /mnt/Music/Foo\ Fighters/
Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace/ Foo_Fighters-Greatest_Hits-2009-TosK/
Foo Fighters/ Skin and Bones/
root@Slimnas:/usr/local/bin # faad_backup1 /mnt/Music/Foo\ Fighters/Echoes,\
Silence,\ Patience\ \&\ Grace/01\ The\ Pretender.m4a

Therefore it comes down to me not knowing how to get the
slimdevices/logitech faad, flac and other patched decoders into my
system.
Hence the question: for my needs to be able to use them, do I need to
build again with or without CPAN?
Thanks in advance.

LMS I'd like to use is a 7.9 nightly or the latest 7.8
