It's finally here, after a 10 month wait! This can't be hard to backport. It says it has better memory usage and stability though.

#2

With the official backports it IIRC won't be backported before it has hit breezy...

and it hasn't.

#3

That's too bad :( I wanted it to hold me over until the new Sonance release, oh well muine will have to do for now.

#4

Sonance is progressing nicely :)

tried yesterdays CVS

and it's no longer called Sonance -- It's called Banshee.

It looked VERY nice. However it was very buggy/incomplete.

1.0 is going to be nice :)

#5

loving rhythmbox. seconding this request

#6

Yeah I'm excited about Sonance err Banshee, hows the iPod support? I've been waiting for a stable release for months.

So.......Does anyone think it could be backported? I'd love to give it a try.

#9

Corey probably meant 0.8.99 is in breezy. I just did an apt-get update and no new rhythmbox...

#10

#11

Well, I tried to make a deb package (I didnt try to compile), but it needed some unavailable libraries, so I guess we'll have to wait for breezy :/

Have they changed the website? Because they haven't updated the name on Aaron's site to Banshee yet.

#13

ftp://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/rhythmbox/

The .deb hit breezy.

ftp://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/rhythmbox/

The .deb hit breezy. Yet another person hoping for a backport :)

Edit: the totem-plparser that configure wants is in the libtotem-plparser (IIRC) package that has already been backported...so it looks like everything required to build it is available...I'm going through a build now and will edit if it works

Edit: Yup, works very well actually :D...seems much more responsive than previous versions...if you want it to build, just do a sudo apt-get install libtotem-* and that'll take care of the totem-plparser dependenct

#16

I'm not finding anything with libtotem-, and yes I have backports! no libtotem here neither

#17

no libtotem here neither I get this:``` $ apt-cache search libtotem libtotem-plparser-dev - Totem Playlist Parser library - development version

Another funny thing is totem-plparser, it wants 1.1.3, and says I have 1.1.1 ... I can't see either in apt ?!?

#18

totem-plparser gets built as a part of totem, although in breezy, and I think backports as well, it's in its own package.

I've just checked and it appears that totem 1.1.1 is the latest version in backports, you'll have to wait until totem 1.1.3 (or 1.1.4) is included before you can get Rhythmbox 0.9.0. The newer version of totem is the only extra requirement over a Gnome 2.10 desktop.

#19

However, as of current CVS, you cant even play songs :) With Banshee from current cvs, I'm happy to report I can play songs (even AACs) ;-)

#20

With Banshee from current cvs, I'm happy to report I can play songs (even AACs) ;-) How did you compile the Banshee CVS? I tried to but it needed mono 1.1.8, whereas Hoary has 1.1.7 ... I also downloaded the latest mono and it installed into my home directory, but I don't know how to compile CVS using that version.

#23
