Thanks for maintaining this package until recently, drewofdoom! I agree it's a nice project. In my opinion you did a great job, so don't be sorry. I've uploaded the changes from my comment below and some other minor things. I made sure it builds in a clean chroot and tested the package in a freshly installed VM, so hopefully I didn't break it. This is my first shared PKGBUILD so I invite everyone to let me know about any issues you find with it. There's one major change: the gmediarender daemon now runs as an unprivileged user. It still has the "audio" group permissions. In my case (and hopefully everyone else's) this works fine. For MP3 playback, you probably need gst-plugins-ugly, which is optional now. Ogg files still work using the default dependencies.

Hey guys, sorry I've let this go by the wayside for so long. I have not been using Arch for quite a while. As such, I do not really have the time nor the tools to maintain this package any more. I do hope that someone will step in and take over this package, though. It's a good project and deserves a home.

Hey, thanks a lot for this PKGBUILD! I noticed three issues regarding packaging standards, so I list them here if you feel like improving the PKGBUILD: * Packages should never be installed to /usr/local (add --prefix=/usr/ to ./configure and update the systemd service file) * I think arch 'any' is used for arch-independent packages only (like PHP, Perl or python scripts where no compiled binaries are added to the package). namcap warns about this when 'any' is used. Maybe the PKGBUILD should explicitly use 'i686' and 'x86_64'? (I simply put $CARCH in there to make it arch-dependent and still support arm etc., but that is probably not acceptable?) * Any optional dependencies that are not needed to run the package or have it generally function should not be included in the depends array. I used these depends changes for my system: * automake, libtool and autoconf are in base-devel so shouldn't be listed in makedepends * libxml2 is not directly required but automatically pulled in as a dependency of gstreamer, so no need to list it explicitly * the "bad" gstreamer codecs are not required to use gmediarender if you only use free file formats, so they should be optional to let the user decide which of them to install (most of my music files are ogg) -depends=('gnome-icon-theme' 'gst-libav' 'gst-plugins-base' 'gst-plugins-good' 'gst-plugins-bad' 'gst-plugins-ugly' 'libupnp') -makedepends=('git' 'autoconf' 'automake' 'libtool' 'libxml2') +depends=('gnome-icon-theme' 'gst-plugins-base' 'gst-plugins-good' 'libupnp') +optdepends=( + 'gst-libav: additional codec support through libav' + 'gst-plugins-bad: additional codecs' + 'gst-plugins-ugly: codecs with potential patent/legal issues, including MP3' +) +makedepends=('git')

Awesome. Thanks for maintaining! :)

Moved libupnp from makedepends to depends

lonaowna commented on 2014-01-15 19:02 (UTC)

this package needs to depend on libupnp, wont start otherwise

Updated, bringing back in gsteamer 1.0.x and adding "backup" for the config file. Please let me know if there are still any problems building against gstreamer 1.0.x on any systems.

Just a suggestion: Could you change the ExecStart line in the .service-File to: ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/gmediarender -f "${friendly}" -u "${uuid}" -d and add a line to the config-file saying: uuid=<some_default_value> Then you will be able to easily run more than 1 mediarender in your network by just changing the uuid in the config-file.

Many thanks, Jakobm. Been busy lately, and today is the first chance I've had to revisit this package. Have just built using your PKGBUILD and everything looks fine. Will update the AUR package accordingly.
