I'm trying to get abcde working on a potato + progeny + 2.4.3 kernel

Debian, I'd like to get rid of the questionable mp3 format.

I grab vorbis from sourceforg, but I had a problem getting one of the
libraries to compile (missing header file). I was wondering if anyone could
point me to a version of vorbis tools that is suitable for using woht the
lates abcde, that works on a potato machine?



I got this to compile on potato. You need to compile libao, libogg, libvorbis, and then vorbis-tools. I can't remember what the dependencies are but I just compiled the ones that compiled without dependencies first and then had to add LD_LIBRARY_PATH to get I believe the tools to compile. This should work with standard potato -dev packages.

The problem I had is that XMMS 1.2.5 is needed to use the ogg plugin and this won't compile as it needs:
gnomexmms.c:24: applet-widget.h: No such file or directory

Thus the only player I can use is ogg123 or some such command line player.

Hope this helps,
Eric
