(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

this is amarok 2.5.0






this is taken from the precise repos and may only work on precise puppy

you can download amarok here http://www.mediafire.com/file/a99x92hoa ... 0_sfs4.sfs 143mb
MD5 2e2d7bd2f8a379f97b34086465b4a48b

the sfs has gstreamer plugins base/good/bad and ugly included.

amarok complains a bit at first about mime types, but it only does that once or twice.

if you want to add scripts you'll need to install the devx, the sfs is missing a few things.

anyway

I hope this works better than Clementine. I've tried to run it as both .pet and .sfs with no luck. It has so many dependencies that it would take forever to resolve.

This is the the shear frustrating part of dealing with Puppy Linux. Why can't they improve the PPM to deal with them better.

I have this running in precise: it works wonderfully AND it has enough of the core binaries where it was fairly simple to install Dolphin, Showfoto, Krename and KRDC: these are all apps I use on Kubuntu. I just installed one deb at a time and tried to launch and then searched for the missing lib using the ubuntu package search in a browser. I didn't use the PPM just because it was trying to install dependencies which would overwrite stuff the amarok sfs had.

The smb protocol even works in dolphin. There is some functionality missing in the right click menu for dolphin but the functions work if put into the toolbar (i.e. create new folder).

Thanks!

Is it only in dolphin or in other browsers as well?

49M amarok-sfs4.sfs is Amarok old version 1, would satisfy a lot of Amarok lovers, with its smooth transition. between songs.
Amarok 2.5 is really big.
Tested on several Puppies. I got satisfaction.

Dowloaded to day...amarok-sfs4.sfs: 49 M
