Arch Linux

Sorry, I didn't subscribe for new comments before and updated just now. Thanks for switching over. With the original package, my downloads wouldn't start at all.

I have just uploaded pymazon 0.9.1-4, using Michael Strecke's fork of pymazon. I had also been having some issues downloading music, and this fork fixed my issues, so we're giving this a shot.

Let me know if this causes any issues for people. It does revert one of the patches that had been applied previously, and hopefully that is now unneeded.

Hey mib1982. What wasn't working for you? And can you link me to Michael Strecke's fork? I can try it out and give it a shot.

Thanks!

This is not working for me. I installed the fork of Michael Strecke on GoogleCode to make it work.

I have just applied the patch linked by ava1ar, and it looks like it builds correctly to me. pymazon-0.9.1-3 is now uploaded. Please let me know if it's working for you.

Patch needed, see https://code.google.com/p/pymazon/issues/detail?id=42 for details. Flaging out of date

It never connects to download a song for me. I get the following error:

Dependency updated to be on python2-crypto. Enjoy!

Change the pycrypto dependency to python2-crypto

hey,

i notized that a patch is necessary to use pymazon trouble-free with new amazon mp3 orders. Look at this thread for more details:
http://code.google.com/p/pymazon/issues/detail?id=42

It would be nice if you can add this patch to AUR.
Thanks

That's not it: I have both of those installed...

optdepends=('pygtk: Gtk2 interface' 'pyqt: Qt interface')

;-)

I get the following error on running, in 64-bit. I have googled around, but to no avail. Any dea what I am doing wrong? Thanks!
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise ImportError(msg)
ImportError: Unable to import PyQt4. You can still use Pymazon via the commmand line with the -c switch. Type `pymazon --help` for more info.

Updated to version 0.9.1.

I think you should make an "enhancement proposal" here: http://code.google.com/p/pymazon/issues/list
Till it is included upstream it would be nice to have them both included in this package.

Dont know if its the responsibility of the package maintainer or if it should be done by the pymazon developers, but how about adding a /usr/share/applications/pymazon.desktop (http://pastebin.com/fvr7BCgz) and a /usr/share/mime/packages/x-amzxml.xml (http://pastebin.com/DYV6X1rW) to this package?
Would make using it a little more comfortable.

fixed for python2

Should be updated for python2 in Arch, so it works again.

Update to version 0.9

I think this PKGBUILD should do the trick: http://aur.pastebin.com/bmTTLLcp

Current version as of right now is 0.9, note also that pymazon 0.9 no longer has a clamz dependency.

Updated the PKBGUILD take this one here:

http://aur.pastebin.com/UHQX7mic

with this its also possible to use the command line options.

for example pymazon -c /bla/amazon.amz -d /bla/store/here
