@m040601 it will be fixed for the next release on GitHub, I switched to the musl toolchain for Linux binaries. Please open an issue on Github for this kind of issue, since this is unrelated to this AUR package. I won't create a binary AUR package for sacad, but anyone is free to do so.

@desbma

Nice to see you keep working on the tool. Best wishes for the rust rewrite.

I'm testing the precompiled binaries you release on github, but I get an error in Archlinux.

Download with the browser, github-cli, dra, or eget

$ tar xf sacad_3.0.0.b7_linux_amd64.tar.xz
$ ./sacad "metallica" "master of puppets" 600 AlbumArt.jpg
Floating point exception   (core dumped) ./sacad "metallica" "master of puppets" 600 AlbumArt.jpg

But I'm getting this,

Floating point exception   (core dumped) ./sacad -t 100 -p "hatsumi shibata" singer 1000 i.jpg

I dont want to install rust/cargo and compile, could you also provide a "sacad-bin" PKGBUILD ?

Thanks in advance.

So sorry, I seem to have typo'd my last comment - it's actually options=(!lto)! Thanks for updating so quickly, nevertheless!

Trying to build the new version failed on my machine - after some digging it seems that Rust doesn't play play nice with the lto makepkg-option. Adding option=(!lto) to the PKGBUILD fixes the issue without requiring the user to build all packages without LTO

Just some big thank you for maintaining this PKGBUILD and also being the developer of sacad. Dont forget to vote for it on the AUR. Maybe with enough votes it will turn into an official Arch package.

What a fantastic, underrated, polished, and usefull tool !!!

Today I just bumped by chance into this PKGBUILD available on the AUR. I had never heard about 'sacad' before. Really dont understand why sacad is not better known.

I have a very big, estimed, and cared music collection. Local files of course. No "streaming service" crap. For years I have been looking for tools to organize it and enhance t better with more metadata, album art covers etc. Scrap and add info and stuff from discogs and musicbraiz etc.

There are many other programs available for this. But I am looking for CLI tools, not GUI tools.

This now has https://github.com/hellysmile/fake-useragent as a dependency.
