thx for the clarification, but I am quite sure that I already understood that before ;) My question was explicitly focussed on the "tweaks" you mentioned above. As there are no sources and no build instructions (not to my knowledge at least) I would have to reinvent all these tweaks on my own and the result would by more like "my personal picore based squeezelite distribution" than "a recompiled picoreplayer image". Picoreplayer is (IMHO) not just a package that you can install on your favorite linux distribution, but instead a full featured appliance like operating system. And as the GPL requires that work that is derived from GPL products has to be released in source code along with complete building instructions (as long as you distribute your "product", which obviously is the case with pcp) I thought that such a package would be available somewhere. Sadly enough, it is simply not enough to say: grab the sources you need somewhere from the web and compile them on your own - after all its free software. Don't get me wrong: I am not a friend of all this GPL related issues and I don't want to discuss them here - I just thought that such a source package with instructions is available somewhere (at least I would have such a thing if I had created pcp). But like I said earlier: thx to your work there's no need to compile anything on my side. I will prolly need some extensions for creating a UDP/lirc interface but after that I should be done. I also think that all the update related issues I mentioned earlier are of no concern to me - why updating when it is working without a hassle? :) Thx a lot again for your help with lirc, you saved me a lot of work and time. Keep up the brilliant work guys! best o/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ w1ntermute's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63376 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
