Musicbrainz issue on suse 10.0 x86_64

Fri Dec 02, 2005 11:14 pm
Hello you all!
I have amarok 1.3.1-7, the versione that comes with suse 10.0.
All the times I try to find on musicbrainz something it returns with a message like:

The track was not found on the database.

In just a fraction of second.

I tried to upgrade to 1.3.6 with all the related packages, but it can\'t find the libraries

libmusicbrainz.so.4
libtunepimp.so.2

which instead are correctly installed under /usr/lib64

I\'ve seen that there are some similar problems with ubuntu, but I\'ve not found posts about suse, and I\'m not enought skilled with linux to follow that directions!

Thanks in advance!

Helloo... is there somebody here?
Probably it\'s a stupid question, but the web-world is full of forums where people asked my same question... but I\'m not able to get an answer!
This should be the right place where to ask, isn\'t it?

Well... I did all by myself, but it seems a \"big\" problem for a lot of users, so I try tto put my solution here... never knows somebody will find it usefull!!

1st than all:
I went on http://rpm.pbone.net/ and made a search for libtunepimp

I choose one of the results (one or another is the same, because we need the src.rpm!)

I downloaded the source package (on the right side of the open windows)

I tryed to build rpm from that package, but it asked me about ten dependencies.

I found almost all on YAST, or -again- on http://rpm.pbone.net/

On the konsole (on the right directory) I digited

rpmbuild --rebuild --target=x86_64 libtunepimp*.src.rpm


because I use suse, probably for other distro it is something like

rpm --rebuild --target=x86_64 libtunepimp*.src.rpm

the last rows of the output of the command told me where to find the 4 rpm packages that where built

I did 4 times

[b]rpm -i mypackage[/b]

where mypackage was the name of each package where built

After that I uninstalled amarok (just amarok, even if it failed a lots of dependencies)
and then I did a reinstall of the same package.

Now everithing work!
I don\'t know why: the four package I installed were all on my computer even before this magic trick!!

If someone can speak english better than me and thinks that this is ununderstandable... please rewrite it!

If someone know the reason of this strange behaviour of my system... I\'ll be thankfull to learn!

Bye!
