- amaroK packages for Debian
- ==========================
-
- A couple of notes which you may find useful:
-
- - starting with amaroK 1.4, lyrics downloading is implemented in a
- separate Ruby script; if you want to use this feature, you'll have
- to install the 'ruby' package.
-
- - if you want amarok to be able to play CDs, you need to install the
- kdemultimedia-kio-plugins package.
-
- - the scripts available in the 'Scripts' menu need that you install
- some other packages for them to work. Those packages are listed in
- the Suggests: field of the amarok package.
-
- - these Debian packages ship the amarokapp and amarok_xmmswrapper2
- binaries in /usr/lib/amarok instead of /usr/bin, which upstream
- does. This is done to comply with Debian Policy, which mandates
- that binaries not meant to be invoked by the user shall not reside
- in /usr/bin.
-
- You should experience no problems because of this change. If you
- do, please let me know.
-
- Also, users not using the full KDE environment may get the following
- error when executing amarok for the first time: "Socket-path is not a
- link or a directory: /home/$USER/.kde/socket-$HOSTNAME". Just execute:
-
- $ lnusertemp socket
-
- Note that you only need to execute it once, not each time that you
- start amaroK.
