Good afternoon, |
5 |
|
6 |
Please note that I am planning to remove beep-media-player and |
7 |
accompanying plugin packages from the portage tree on March 4, 2006, |
8 |
unless |
9 |
anyone can convince me of a good reason why they should stay. |
10 |
This software has been abandoned by it's authors since October 2005, |
11 |
and is |
12 |
masked starting today. |
13 |
|
14 |
Note that a currently active fork exists (Audacious), which has absorbed |
15 |
the necessary functionality to play all formats that BMP would have |
16 |
needed a plugin for. The 0.1.2 release of Audacious has the same |
17 |
stable keywords |
18 |
that beep-media-player has, and should prove to be an effortless |
19 |
upgrade. For anyone |
20 |
running ~arch, release 0.2 is available. |
21 |
Audacious is the recommended upgrade path from beep-media-player. |
22 |
Most, if not all the bmp |
23 |
plugins available in portage have already been absorbed into this program. |
24 |
|
25 |
Regards, |
26 |
Tony (Chainsaw) |
