I'm a bit surprised to see yum and fc27 in the same command: Fedora replaced yum by dnf about the time it got the ability to upgrade to the next release in situ - that was around fc20, so about four years ago. I've been using dnf, yum's replacement, since then. Yum is still available, but deprecated in Fedora, so maybe that example was from a Centos or RHEL installation. Anyway, I just did a dnf search for packages with 'squeeze' or 'lms' in the name and only found two relevant ones: - squeezelite, described as "Headless music player for streaming from Logitech Media Server" - nuvola-app-logitech-media-server described as "Integration of Logitech Media Server into your Linux desktop via Nuvola Player" so neither look like anything I want. I've not heard of Nuvola Player, but there are a heap of packages for it in the Fedora repository and the one I quoted is an add-on to the base Nuvola Player package. Nuvola is described as a 'semi-sandboxed' (whatever that means) web browser plugin thats capable of working with a shedload of third party apps (presumably Android or Windows apps), all the way from 8-track and Sirius XM via Deezer to Spotify, so probably installing it would drag in more baggage than I want. Do you have a LMS .repo file for dnf (or yum)? If so, I'd appreciate a copy. If you have one, I'll install and use it because this will automate updates. Otherwise I'll just grab a suitable RPM file from your site and unpack/install it manually with the 'rpm -U ...' command. FWIW .repo files seem to be compatible with dnf, since they still live in /etc/yum/repos.d Martin _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
