Will - Just wondering if you plan to provide a package for projectM for
SuSE11.0, 11.1 and beyond. The 10.x versions in your repositories won't
work in the 11.x versions of SuSE and it would be nice to have it again...

TBH I had mostly forgotten about libvisual - I joined a gym and stopped
working out in the home office, so didn't need something to go with the
tunes... The other reason I lost interest is that although you can display a
projectM window from the Amarok Visualisations dialog, it doesn't seem to
respond to the music.

Anyway I've updated projectM and the libvisual plugin for it to 1.2.0 in my
OBS home, and renamed a few packages there to comply with newer packaging
conventions.

libprojectM -> projectM

libvisual-projectM -> projectM-libvisual

Please let me know if there are any problems upgrading due to the renames -
I've added Provides/Obsoletes pairs which /should/ cover it.

As for help with packaging it, sure if I knew how... I have (finally)
managed to get the latest version of projectM, from their svn, to
compile and installed on my system, but not working/integrated with
Amarok and dunno what the problem is, nor am I getting any responses for
my requests for help... And since I am NOT a guru of Linux I have no
idea how to package anything so I would require training....

Is a packaging workshop on Sunday 5th April of interest to you?

Will
