Now that the new stable release of Debian has been out for a couple of weeks: any status on this? That potential new moosic release (without examples/completion, and with the new play-one command) is still pending testing of the result; I have no reason to expect it to not work, and certainly haven't managed to find anything that does break with it gone, but I don't know what would constitute a valid test of whether there is anything that fails to work without it but did work with it. [Re the bug that manifests when one of the playback commands in the moosic config file would give "No such file or directory":] > Once I've either found and fixed the bug or (much less likely) > assured myself it's not going to manifest in plausibly-real-world > user scenarios, In the somewhat-extensive meantime, I have done the latter of these. I still don't know what causes the buggy behavior, but I've confirmed that it already seems to exist in the previously packaged version, and I don't believe it's going to manifest in real-world usage. As such, I don't consider this a blocker for moving forward. (For reference, the buggy behavior is that even when moosicd is already running, moosic will in some cases fail to detect it - more specifically, the moosic internal client-server command 'no_op' will fail - and will therefore try to start a new instance of the daemon.) -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
