(Re-editing my last comment)

The original repo, ympd.org and https://github.com/notandy/ympd seems abandoned:

  • He hasnt answered github issues for 2 years.
  • The last code was committed in 2018.
  • He's still active on Github recently though.
  • See also this issue by other arch linux users https://github.com/notandy/ympd/issues/189

This, https://github.com/SuperBFG7/ympd, is the fork of the guy who made the compile fix 191l, . He is also an Archlinux user. The fork seems to be more active, but the issues are disabled. Couldnt check his future plans.

He has another repo with PKGBUILDS, https://github.com/SuperBFG7/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/ympd-git/PKGBUILD, pulling the source from his own fork

Want to report that the update, to 1.3.0-4 from 1.3.0-3l worked perfectly, both on x86_64 and armv7h (Raspberry Pi 2B 1.1)

Thanks cippaciong for still taking care of this package (and ympd-git). After many years of using it in the Raspberry Pi, I actually find it more pleasant than mympd. Mympd has more features than ympd (access to metadata), but I cant seem to get used to the unintuitive UI and somehow buggy setup.

I have updated the PKGBUILD to manually apply the patch included in PR 191 which should at least fix the compile issues.

EDIT (09.07.2020): thanks to @L0ric0 there is now a mympd package build in AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mympd/

it should support the Raspberry Pi:

arch=('i686' 'x86_64' 'armv6h' 'armv7h')

(although it needs 225MB of java as a make dependency)

Your proposal to prepare an AUR package of myMPD sounds interesting.

Sorry if this seems lazy from my part, and if I am hijacking this comments section. Unfortunately I still lack many skills to make sure I can write a clean and well mantained PKGBUILD. I myself am not planning to do it. So I am simply asking if someone here could create a package for mympd.

My original intention was making it known here, since "mympd" is basicly just a well mantained and updated forke of "ympd". It shouldnt take much effort to create it, and since cippaciong is already providing this one, one would avoid reinventing the wheel.

ympd was last updated more than 2 years ago. In the meantime, I keep seeing mympd, https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/releases, releasing almost monthly and adding features.

He even provides prebuild binaries for ArchLinux using OpenSuse build service https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/wiki/Prebuild-Packages https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jcorporation/Arch/x86_64/

So at least creating a package "myMPD-bin" should be straightforward.

Is there still nobody here with interest in creating one for it ?

PS: I also requested if they could provide prebuild binaries for ArchLinux ARM (raspberry pi) https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/issues/296

This package (ympd and ympd-git) won't build on RaspberryPi (armv6h):

I have it running for years on my Raspberry Pi 2B v1.1, armv7h Did you check your PKGBUILD and Raspberry version ? The pi zero is the one with armv6h

I try to install ympd with $ yay ympd I get the error: [100%] Linking C executable ympd /usr/bin/ld: CMakeFiles/ympd.dir/src/mpd_client.c.o:(.bss+0x0): multiple definition of `mpd'; CMakeFiles/ympd.dir/src/ympd.c.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: [CMakeFiles/ympd.dir/build.make:205: ympd] Error 1 make[1]: [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:98: CMakeFiles/ympd.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:150: all] Error 2 ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

What to do now??

@Kresimir: ympd works fine on RaspberryPi, as the error says you are missing the strip binary. It's provided by the package binutils which is part of the group base-devel, a pre requisite to build AUR packages. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites
