Debian/Ubuntu package about plattenalbum

[SoongNoonien]

Since I'm not using Debian/Ubuntu it's difficult to properly maintain .deb packages. Although I'd really like to see mpdevil running on other distro's than Arch and Gentoo, the development of mpdevil itself is more important for now. When mpdevil finally gets stable I might consider to provide .deb packages.

Do you need some help installing mpdevil without a package?

I am getting two errors when compiling with ./autogen.sh
checking for MPDClient installed... not found configure: error: python module mpd not found
These were ran within the root folder of mpdevil on Desktop.
I am using pulsaudio and it works from ncmpcpp.
Not sure if this is because mpd is not run system-wide.

You just have to install python3-mpd. (all python modules needed: python3-mpd python3-bs4 python3-gobject python3-requests)

I was unable to find python3-gobject. Is it python3-gi or python-gobject?

I installed python3-gi along with all other modules and it works fine now. Thanks.

Oh, you're right, it's python3-gi. I'm glad to hear it's running now. By the way, which version of Ubuntu do you use? And if you find any errors please report them to improve mpdevil.

I'm running Ubuntu 19.10 with the Budgie desktop. Can I ask are you planning to add compatibility with media keys?

Thanks.

Can I ask are you planning to add compatibility with media keys?

Yes, but would you mind opening a separate Issue? (btw: play/pause is already working with SPACE-key)

I've just published a first test .deb package with the 0.8.0 release.
