Request for a version squeezelite-2.0.0.1504-aarch64.tar.gz including flac patches

[Phil995511]

Hello,

Would you be so kind as to publish a recent version for ARM 64 of Squeezelite for Linux :

squeezelite-2.0.0.1517-aarch64.tar.gz

Please?

The latest version you published (squeezelite-2.0.0.1488-aarch64.tar.gz) is problematic because it is too old and it is superseded by the updates published under Diet-Pi. And this recreates the bug of receiving radios in FLAC ;-(

Could you possibly also contact the developers / maintainers of Diet-Pi to tell them how to more easily integrate functional versions of Squeezelite into their OS? This would avoid such problems in the future...

Thank you in advance and happy new year 2025 to you.

I thought I replied to you in a forum thread, but no matter. None of the changes to squeezelite between 1488 and 1517 affect it's operation other than you can now use a slimdevices mac address, which is blocked in 1488. My aarch64 build environment is not available ATM. As soon as I have access to it, I'll update the aarch64 build for you.

Also, if you're using DietPi and don't want to have the distribution's squeezelite package overwriting your preferred version then simply run apt-mark hold squeezelite to stop it auto-updating whilst allowing the rest of the packages to continue to be updated.

I've uploaded a latest aarch64 build to sourceforge. https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/squeezelite/linux/ I don't have time to reach out to linux distribution maintainers. It's entirely up to them how they want to keep their packages up to date.

Thanks, I had already blocked the correct version this way after the unwanted update for me of squeezee on Diet-Pi :)

Thank you, I was sick the last few days, I'm only answering you now...

I now avoid posting on the Lyrion forum. There are too many people giving their opinions, a bit in all directions and in the end it is not productive for me who has difficulty formulating in English... It takes too much effort for me to have to respond to multiple speakers.

I just updated to squeezelite-2.0.0.1518-aarch64.tar.gz and it seems to work great, thanks for this new release.

I will check in the future only the availability of your software on your Source Forge links.

Thank you for everything. Very beautiful and happy new year 2025 to you !!!!
