After a shockingly long delay I've finally got around to producing an updated ebuild for Gentoo. This has now been reviewed and has been incorporated into Portage as the following package:
media-sound/logitechmediaserver-bin As the package name suggests this is a binary ebuild and therefore avoids nearly all of the Perl dependencies of the previous 'squeezeboxserver' ebuilds. This should make it quite a lot easier to install as well as being more likely to work correctly. This comes at the slight price of bundling libraries with a package, but managing the Perl dependencies had really become untenable with the old-style ebuild. Please give it a go if you've been waiting for that on Gentoo, and file bugs on the Gentoo Bugzilla if you get any problems. Note that you'll have to unmerge your previous install of 'media-sound/squeezeboxserver' or 'media-sound/squeezecenter' first (you'll be told there are packages blocking the install otherwise). This ebuild should migrate your preferences and plugins from your current install (follow the instructions at the end of the emerge concerning "emerge --config" to do that), but note that only a SQLite database is supported at present. I hope to re-introduce MySQL support soon but wanted to get an initial working ebuild out first. If there's anybody still listening then thanks for your patience.
