I've got it to work with listen (the only one I tried).

i joined the blag group fairly recently, username bob_summers. i'm using audacious with the last.fm scrobbler plug-in, works well :-)

did anyone get the last.fm client working in blag? my build fails on make. not sure if the clients is all that necessary, but would be nice to get it working.

my output, fwiw:

Hey piston,
Looks like you don't have the g++ packages (obviously). Try doing an 'apt-cache search' for g++ or c++, it'll let you know exactly what the package is called. I'm not at my blag box right now, I can't remember the specific name of the rpms you need.

hi iron_chef - have you got the client running in blag?

i tried searching for g++, installing the packages didn't help.

pistonbrew -
I'm at work again, but I'm installing blag on a spare machine in my cube as I type this, I'll try building the last.fm client and let you know how it goes. Stay tuned!

Ok, I'm back. To build the client, here's what I had to do, from a fresh Blag install.

Use Synaptic to install the following packages, along with all their dependencies that get pulled in:

- qt4-devel
- make
- gcc-c++
- alsa-lib-devel

Then run ./configure and then make. It built without errors for me. The resulting binaries are in the bin/ subdirectory of the directory you run make from.

Let me know if you have any problems!

hey joe, which blag are you using? i'm using the 70k alpha, and i get this when i try to install gcc-c++:

iron_chef · Posted: Fri Oct 05, 2007 2:43 pm Post subject:

Ah, that may be the issue... I actually only had the 60k beta laying around here, so I installed that. Then I did an apt-get upgrade to get to the latest "official" release, the one with the hippo wallpaper, I think it's 60001. I haven't tried the 70k alpha yet.
It looks like something's broken in the repo, possibly. That's a bummer.
Maybe Jebba has some ideas?

It sounds more like you need to run `apt-get update` then `apt-get install gcc-c++`

If that's still jacked (as seen by something like `apt-get check`), you may have some conflicts due to installing directly with `rpm`. `apt-get -f install` will sort things out (but beware if it says it wants to remove a zillion packages).

I'm guessing you didn't do the synaptic equivalent of `apt-get update`

pistonbrew · Posted: Tue Oct 16, 2007 5:25 pm Post subject:

more than likely ;-)

upshot is, the last.fm client is now running on me blag boxes, and although not particularly integrated into gnome, it works well enough. just needs a fedora rpm to come along and tie up the loose ends i guess.

The audacious in BLAG 70K default install comes with Audio Scrobbler built in (as does listen) So now is a good time to join the BLAG group. I should start scrobbling music again.
