User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/audacious
Install Audacious by running the following commands (you may wish to change the stamp to another string):
TPUT=/bin/true ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --with-buildstamp="BLFS" && make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
Install the required plugins package by issuing the following commands:
tar -xf ../audacious-plugins-4.2.tar.bz2 && cd audacious-plugins-4.2 && TPUT=/bin/true ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-wavpack && make
Now, as the root
user:
make install
This package installs icon files into the /usr/share/icons/hicolor
hierarchy and
desktop files into the /usr/share/applications
hierarchy. You can
improve system performance and memory usage by updating
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/index.theme
and
/usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
. To
perform the update you must have GTK+-2.24.33 or
GTK+-3.24.36 installed (for the icon cache)
and desktop-file-utils-0.26
(for the desktop cache) and issue the following commands as the
root
user:
gtk-update-icon-cache -qtf /usr/share/icons/hicolor && update-desktop-database -q
TPUT=/bin/true
: the default
is for make to output
text in color. This is fine if you are building in a terminal, but
if you script the build process and pipe the output from
make to a log file
then the control characters used to color the text can make the
logfile unreadable. This option prevents make from coloring the text.
--with-buildstamp
: This
switch appends the given text to the version string.
--disable-wavpack
: This
switch is required unless the optional WavPack package is
installed.
--enable-gtk
: Use this to enable GTK+
support.
--disable-qt
: Use this to disable qt
support.
--disable-mp3
: Use this for the plugins
if you have not installed mpg123 and do not wish to play mp3 files.
--enable-valgrind
: Allow better
Valgrind leak checks.
--disable-neon
: Use this for the
plugins if you have not installed neon, and do not want to use
HTTP/HTTPS transport.
If you prefer the old, smaller Winamp/XMMS interface, click on View> Interface> Winamp Classic Interface.
If you built with both Gtk and Qt user interfaces, the Qt version
can be executed from a terminal, issuing audacious --qt. If you wish a
desktop menu entry to execute this Qt version, issue the following
commands as the root
user:
cp -v /usr/share/applications/audacious{,-qt}.desktop && sed -e '/^Name/ s/$/ Qt/' \ -e '/Exec=/ s/audacious/& --qt/' \ -i /usr/share/applications/audacious-qt.desktop
