Audacious missing extensions?

[thane]

Yesterday I downloaded the Audacious media player (gtk3 version). It wouldn't play any media files or streams (mp3, m3u) so tried running the app in a terminal. Saw several error messages relating to libraries not being found. Using the Apps 'Provides' function I found and downloaded the additional extensions containing the missing libraries. Audacious now works fine.

Since the missing libraries are available in current TC extensions, this looks like a dependencies issue.

Hi thane
If you would share which addition extensions you required, an administrator could probably adjust the dependency
file accordingly.

Trying to reconstruct after the fact (looking at extensions not depended on that aren't apps I specifically downloaded):

faad.tcz
gnutls.tcz
libmms.tcz
libnotify.tcz
libsamplerate.tcz
mpg123.tcz
neon.tcz
wavpack.tcz

Quite a number when I look at it, so maybe something else is going on? Bad dep file somewhere?

Hi thane
Is it possible you're supposed to install  audacious-plugins.tcz  to play media files or streams (mp3, m3u)? From
the  audacious-plugins.tcz.info  file:

Code: [Select]

Comments:       Requires alsa or pulseaudio sound
                can optionally use the neon, libmms, wavpack, libvorbis, libsndfile, flac,
                libcdio, lame, libsamplerate, libnotify curl, mpg123,  faad and libsamplerate extensions
The list in the comments section looks very similar to what you reported. If that's the case, maybe a notation in the
comments section of  audacious.tcz.info  file should be added.

audacious-plugins is one of the audacious deps - audacious will play ogg files without problems, but for most other formats the problem is here:

Code: [Select]

$ audacious
 *** ERROR: /usr/local/lib/audacious/Input/ffaudio.so could not be loaded: libavcodec.so.55: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
..I'll take a look.

Thanks Rich and Juanito.

updated audacious and audacious-plugins posted

[thane]

I downloaded the updated audacious and audacious-plugins extensions (version 3.7.1).

When I ran audacious in a terminal, got messages about libraries not found. Downloading the following extensions corrected most of this:

faad.tcz
gnutls.tcz
libnotify.tcz
libsamplerate.tcz
neon.tcz
SDL.tcz
wavpack.tcz

Also got a message that referred to a library I couldn't find:

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6:version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found

And possibly curl.tcz is outdated?

/usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: undefined symbol: SSLv2_client_method

edit: Audacious does work though as far as playing mp3 and m3u files, in spite of the last two messages.

Yes, this is mentioned in the audacious-plugins info file...

/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6:version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found

Oops - I guess I compiled it in tc-7.x

And possibly curl.tcz is outdated?

/usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: undefined symbol: SSLv2_client_method

Yes - it's awaiting a recompile.

Good

Thanks!
