*NEW: Debian packages for sc2mpd:* as the procedure for building sc2mpd is
|
|
|
21 |
not completely obvious and automatic, I have also added *sc2mpd* packages
|
|
|
22 |
to the *upmpdcli* Debian repository. Packages exist for architectures i386,
|
|
|
23 |
amd64 and Raspberry Pi. You can follow the procedure on the
|
|
|
24 |
link:downloads.html[upmpdcli download page] to add the repository, then
|
|
|
25 |
just use the following to install sc2mpd:
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
|
27 |
sudo apt-get install sc2mpd
|

NOTE: For rebuilding from the source package: the installed binary has a
|
|
|
30 |
static link to the OpenHome libraries. This means that, in order to rebuild
|
|
|
31 |
from the source package, you need to follow the normal procedure to build
|
|
|
32 |
the OpenHome libs first (see the ohbuild.sh script further down). The build
|
|
|
33 |
tree should be located under /opt/openhome for the package rebuild to work.
