muc (music on console) 2.5.2 (or 2.5.1 if unavailable for i586)

[Rava]

Since we have a x86-64 bundle for muc 2.5.2 for x86-64 - http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/porteus/x86_6 ... penbox.xzm - I wanted to create one for i586 4.0 XFCE Porteus also. Sadly to no prevail.

What did I try:
search for muc via:
pkgs.org
https://packages.slackware.com/
https://slackbuilds.org/result/?search=muc&sv=14.2

http://moc.daper.net/download itself lists Linux distro package info via https://repology.org/ and https://repology.org/project/moc/versions claims there is 2.5.1 for slackware-current and 2.5.2 for slackware-14.2

But https://repology.org/projects/?search=m ... es_newest= gives no results.


Who did create moc-2.5.2-x86_64-openbox.xzm back in 2019-06-29 ? Maybe he could hint me towards how he did it.
Maybe just downloading the source, activating 05-devel and ./configure ?

trying to download the source via http://moc.daper.net/download fails - http://ftp.daper.net/pub/soft/moc/stabl ... .2.tar.bz2
Not even downloading the most probably small md5sum text file fails - http://ftp.daper.net/pub/soft/moc/stabl ... bz2.md5sum
What the site maintainer writes on http://moc.daper.net/download is the understatement of the year

You can download MOC sources from the official ftp site (could be slow)

(highlighting by me)

Is anyone able to download the source and the source's md5sum text file?

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

moc: moc (console audio player)
moc:
moc: MOC is a console audio player with a simple ncurses interface.
moc: It supports OGG, FLAC, WAV, and MP3 formats. Just run mocp, go to some
moc: directory using the menu, select a file, and press enter to play it.

Indeed that was a typo I not even realized. up to eleven

…

Anyhow, made a module out the above, activated it but…

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:/6/Porteus_modules/4.0i586$ mocp 
mocp: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by mocp)
mocp: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by mocp)

How on earth should one be able to simultaneously have /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' and `GLIBC_2.33' in the same system?

Seems Porteus 4.0i586 ships with V2.27:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/mnt/live/memory/images# find .|grep -i GLIBC-2
./001-core.xzm/var/log/packages/glibc-2.27-i586-1

Usually trying to upgrade GLIBC means breaking most of the existing programs in the system. Either I have to settle with an older version of moc … or I try hacking the source code of moc looking if it would compile and run okay when hacked to accept GLIBC 2.27 (which I very much doubt) and I would have to get the source code first which is not possible via the home page. But since I deem it very unlikely to succeed hacking moc's 2.5.2 source trying an older version (e.g. muc 2.5.1) seems to be the way better option.

the link are dead seem or you have to register first

It not says anything about the need to register on the project's homepage… or did I miss that as well like I missed my typo muc vs. moc?

got a partly running i586 moc via

Code: Select all

wget --no-check-certificate https://slackware.uk/slackware/slackware-14.2/slackware/ap/moc-2.5.1-i586-1.txz

and as you can imagine, "partly running" has a huge but in it:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:/6/Porteus_modules/4.0i586$ mocp 
Can't load plugin libmp3_decoder: file not found
Running the server...
Trying ALSA...

Not even being able to handle the most basic of sound file formats - mp3 - by default is quite a let-down.

ah, sorry, i missed that your target was porteus 4.0 ..
you can get the source archive (and slackbuild and patch) here: http://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/ ... ce/ap/moc/
patch may or may not be needed .. i forget what version of ffmpeg 4.0 has...

activated 05-devel via

Code: Select all

activate $PORTDIR/optional/05-devel-i586-Porteus4.0.xzm

usually I rename my 05-devel, so that I know which one the correct 05-devel is, even when it sits in $PORTDIR/optional/. Better safe than confused.

Sadly, compiling fails. Here the error messages only:

Code: Select all

gcc: error: /usr/lib/libldap.so: No such file or directory
gcc: error: /usr/lib/liblber.so: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [Makefile:576: mocp] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/tmp/moc-2.5.2'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:719: all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/moc-2.5.2'
make: *** [Makefile:474: all] Error 2

make[1]: *** [Makefile:719: all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/moc-2.5.2'
make: *** [Makefile:474: all] Error 2

No clue why error messages get repeated, I think that's how ./moc.SlackBuild is coded to handle things.

I presume I have to get /usr/lib/libldap.so and /usr/lib/liblber.so and try again.
I look if maybe both of these are part of the already downloaded and converted from txz into moc-2.5.2-i586-8.xzm or moc-2.5.1-i586-1.xzm .

If fails I try USM.

If that also fails, I try slackware searches.

If that also fails, I try pkgs.org…

But for now I have no more time left to play with gcc and whatnot, RL calls me back into its sunny day and RL chores. I will be back and report on my progress. Thanks a bunch for now.

hi rava :https://www.linuxquestions.org/question ... nd-414141/ the 64 bit of moc version on porteus stock work without add software.

I have the same problem with moc-2.5.1-x86_64....(even with added links)
