Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Hello!

I *think* we have something stable enough to make a 0.3 release. There's have a .deb available here.

The GUI certainly hasn't changed much, so what's new?

• Bookmarks are stored in an SQLite database
• Playlists (m3u,pls) are fully supported (importing and exporting)
• Playlists can be modified on the fly:
  Tracks can be added or removed
  Tracks can be reordered (via drag and drop)
• Bookmarks are now listed under the track name (using a treeview)
• The code is much more modular and tries to respect a MVC architecture
• Many more d-bus methods are now exposed through dbusinterface.py
• Logging is much fancier thanks to python's logging module

Since you're not installing from Maemo Extras you'll need to manually install the dependencies, which are: Enjoy,

I'm on it! :)

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I installed 0.3 after cleaning off previous versions (including ~/.panucci.sqlite) and got this Error:

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

installing over existing panucci produced no error from app manager, but launching gave me this:

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I updated the link in the original post, please try 0.3-1.

Thank you very much for the report.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Thank you for testing, sorry for the inconvenience.

Can you please post your ~/.rmp-bookmarks (or ~/.rmp-bookmarks.bak)?
If you tar/zip the file I think you can even attach it to the post.

Thanks again,

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I think I figured out what caused this, please try 0.3-2 (I updated the link in the original post).

If that doesn't fix it, then please post your ~/.rmp-bookmarks file.

Sorry for the confusion,

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

that fixed it, panucci started fine now :)

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

0.3-2 is working for me. Being able to open a playlist may just make this my default player.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Here's 0.3-3 :) (as usual, the link has been updated in the original post)

This one removes the --file (or -f) command line option. The functionality is still the same just use "panucci /some/good/podcast.mp3" instead of "panucci ---file /some/good/podcast.mp3". Also, if you start panucci this way, it'll automatically start playing the file instead of you having to push the play button.

Thanks to Thomas for the suggestion.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Tried to install, but got a message that Installer was unable to update Panucci because something was missing. Python -Mutagen, whatever that is.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

The package you're referring to is python2.5-mutagen. It is available in both the Chinook and Diablo Extras repos.

That warning is actually a good thing; it means that we've correctly listed the dependencies in our .deb ;). Since you're not installing Panucci from a repo (like Extras) the application manager won't install the needed dependencies (don't ask me why, it seems kinda dumb to me).

The solution is to simply install the dependencies manually and then install Panucci. Note: This will not be the case when 0.3 is uploaded to Diablo Extras, in that situation the application manager will take care of fetching all of the needed dependencies because you are installing from a repo.

To install the missing dependency run the following as root (see the original post for the full list of dependencies):Thank you for testing,

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

the general ones said it was to encourage the use of repos over .deb's, especially if the latter had no source attached alongside it...

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I tried the apt-get install python2.5-mutagen (from root) and got a shopping list of can't do this, can't do that. Not sure what the problem is. Is there a way to install the python dependencies from application manager? It might work from there.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

That's a very good point, I'll get to work setting up a Panucci-testing repo.

nick

P.S. Panucci source code is always available from here and here. Also, if you want to build your own .deb from inside a scratchbox environment do the following:

• Clone the git tree and "cd" into it: git clone git://git.nikosapi.org/panucci.git; cd panucci
• Run "dch -i" to add a changelog entry
• Run "make build-package" to generate the .deb

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Could you copy/paste the error? I don't *think* you can install libraries using the application manager (maybe if you enable red-pill mode)...

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

or just get it up on extra-devel...

thats what its there for, really...

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I applied for an invitation to upload to Maemo Extras last week, but still have yet to get a response. Does extras-devel require an invitation as well?

If so, I guess I'll have to get thp to upload for me atm :)

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

i think there may have been a issue with the upload access requests, i got the impression on irc at least...

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I'll try to copy the error message later this evening as I am not near WiFi till then...

I think apt-get is trying to tell you something ;)

Running "apt-get update" should fix that for you.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Try what apt-get is telling you... Or you can try installing python2.5-mutagen by getting the .deb directly, right here. In order to prevent those apt errors you may want to uninstall any un-needed apps and disable/remove any un-needed application catalogs (this can all be done from the application manager).

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

seems like there are 3 entries for chinook free and 2 for chinook non-free...
one only need one of each...

and that goffice error, i suspect there is abiword or gnumeric installed. quick guess is that a higher version of libart is installed then what goffice wants, but something else depends on that high version and therefor its left alone...

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Okay, here's the latest attempt.

There were no listings in Application manager for Chinook free or libart so I was unable to delete any duplicates. I ran apt-get update and then ran apt-get -f install and it tells me to run apt-get update.
I appear to have reached a dead end loop.
I have given up on this before and I know I have it in me to give up again!!!:)

I am still miles away from actually installing the program.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

you have to close application manager before you can use apt-get in terminal...

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

Application manager is/was closed.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I have tried again to install Panucci, but have once again failed. I am a bit irritated that you need to be some kind of Linux guru just to install a simple app on this device. I have been trying since I bought the N800 last year, to do something so simple I can do it easily on my el cheapo Palm Zire 71. That is listen to an audiobook. I am not averse to paying for programs that I use but there isn't even that option.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/panucci/

open this link in the tablet browser, then tap the green arrow. 0.3 is currently a test version, but will show up as a update when ready.

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I'm terribly sorry that you can't get it to install but to be honest I don't think it's Panucci's fault. I ran into a similar situation when I first got my n810; I added a bunch of random repos and installed all sorts of weird stuff. This caused dependency issues which prevented me from updating my tablet. In the end it was just simpler to re-flash it and start again.

You have two options (that I can think of):

1. Remove any non-essential applications, clear out any non-maemo repositories from the application manager and try installing again.
2. Reflash with the latest OS image and start from scratch. (Keep in mind that we only test on 4.1-Diablo)

Hope this helps,

nick

Re: Panucci 0.3 testers requested
 

I'll try again. When I first got the N800 and discovered there was no audiobook reader I went through the whole clone to sd business so that I would be able to have a large space to set up Garnet VM and use Pocket tunes. (Insert laugh track). Sooo I hate to think of reflashing because now it is almost a year later and I have forgotten how I did everything. I'll do it as a last resort. First I'll start chucking stuff and see what happens. Thanks for the help.
