Installation of 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, but you can run,
before installing, test src/balsa. You will see a lot of
debugging messages scrolling in the console. This is actually
useful because they can be used to track down a bug.
Now, as the root user:
make install
Installation of Audacious Plugins
Install the required plugins package by unpacking the tarball,
changing into the newly created directory, and issuing the
following commands:
TPUT=/bin/true ./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
![[Note]](../images/note.png)
Note
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+-2.24.29 or
GTK+-3.18.7 installed (for the icon cache) and
desktop-file-utils-0.22 (for the
desktop cache) and issue the following commands as the
root user:
gtk-update-icon-cache &&
update-desktop-database
Command Explanations
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 stops it coloring the text.
--with-buildstamp: This
switch appends the given text to the version string.
--disable-gtk: Use this to disable GTK+
support.
--disable-mp3: Use this for the plugins
if you have not installed mpg123 and do not wish to play mp3 files.
--enable-qt: Use this to enable Qt
support.
--enable-valgrind: Allow better
Valgrind leak checks.
Configuring Audacious
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
