So yesterday I searched for one of the my favorite application: xmms using webpin, in Factory only one result was: xfce4-panel-plugin-xmms, iirc it requires xmms, but where is xmms?? OK in coolo's answer there's the "often" word, but I don't understand why was it dropped. I searched the bugzilla, no bugs shown regarding to xmms. Yes I know what ppl are saying about xmms, but I like it and imho other people likes it too. What are saying ppl bad about xmms? some examples: 1. unmaintained. false: [2] [3] 2. it's buggy, as i said no xmms bugs in bugzilla 3. uses gtk 1. so? gtk1 is in Factory etc
I understand the gtk1 part but I wonder what the replacement application would be? I haven't found a proper replacement yet given that I don't use KDE or Gnome and like lightweight applications for that purpose. I have to admit that I use amarok once in a while but that's overkill for my usage.
I heard that xmms2 is interesting, but unfortunately it's not in openSUSE as well, not even in the build service. I think it would be good if xmms would be available from build service at least until GTK1 really gets killed. With that, people have a location to find it if they want it, even if it's not included in the default distro. Don't underestimate the amount of users this old sucker still has - and if it's just for simplicity and theme compatibility with those nice old Winamp themes ;-) Robert Kaiser --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
