Package: shairport-sync
Version: 3.2.2-1+b2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

shairport-sync 3.2.2 fails to start with systemd as documented at 
https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/issues/829.
This has been fixed with https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/pull/879 
but the package needs to be updated.

Thank you

// Sample Configuration File for Shairport Sync
// Commented out settings are generally the defaults, except where noted.
// General Settings
general =
{
        name = "HomeAudio %H"; // This means "Hostname" -- see below. This is 
the name the service will advertise to iTunes.
//              The default is "Hostname" -- i.e. the machine's hostname with 
the first letter capitalised (ASCII only.)
//              You can use the following substitutions:
//                              %h for the hostname,
//                              %H for the Hostname (i.e. with first letter 
capitalised (ASCII only)),
//                              %v for the version number, e.g. 3.0 and
//                              %V for the full version string, e.g. 
3.0-OpenSSL-Avahi-ALSA-soxr-metadata-sysconfdir:/etc

"Shairport Sync %v on %H".
//      password = "secret"; // leave this commented out if you don't want to 
require a password

alternative is "soxr". Use "soxr" only if you have a reasonably fast processor.
//      output_backend = "alsa"; // Run "shairport-sync -h" to get a list of 
all output_backends, e.g. "alsa", "pipe", "stdout". The default is the first 
one.

mdns_backends. The default is the first one.

number of seconds of drift away from exact synchronisation before attempting to 
correct it

decimal point in it, to set the maximum volume, in dB, you wish to use.
//              The setting is for the hardware mixer, if chosen, or the 
software mixer otherwise. The value must be in the mixer's range (0.0 to -96.2

specify how the airplay volume is transferred to the mixer volume.
//              "standard" makes the volume change more quickly at lower

automatically.

compensate for a fixed delay in the audio back end. E.g. if the output device 
delays by 100 ms, set this to -0.1.
//      audio_backend_buffer_desired_length_in_seconds = 0.15; // If set too 
small, buffer underflow occurs on low-powered machines. Too long and the 
response time to volume changes becomes annoying. Default is 0.15 seconds in 
the alsa backend, 0.35 seconds in the pa backend and 1.0 seconds otherwise.
//      audio_backend_silent_lead_in_time = 2.0; // This optional advanced 
setting, from 0.0 and 4.0 seconds, sets the length of the period of silence 
that precedes the start of the audio. The default is the latency, usually 2.0 
seconds. Values greater than the latency are ignored. Values that are too low 
will affect initial synchronisation.

low frequencies depending on the volume.

all other volume control and only let shairport-sync control your volume.
