Name        : audacious-plugins
Product     : Fedora 12
Version     : 2.2
Release     : 10.fc12.pl14
URL         : http://audacious-media-player.org/
Summary     : Plugins for the Audacious media player
Description :
Audacious is a media player that currently uses a skinned user interface
(based on Winamp 2.x skins) as well as a separate GTK2 based front end.
Historically, it started as a fork of Beep Media Player (BMP), which
itself forked from XMMS.

This package provides essential plugins for audio input, audio output and
visualization.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Rough times ahead!    * This is an upgrade to Audacious 2.2 including a couple
of patches. Please also apply the separate update for the mcs library.    *
Audacious 2.2 has been declared a "stable release" by its developers, but Fedora
12 users found enough issues with Audacious 2.1 -- the previous "stable release"
-- so that even after squashing lots of reported bugs, some problems remain. Due
to major changes in some parts of Audacious 2.2, the core developers cannot tell
whether some rare bugs are fixed. The upgrade to 2.2 is a trade-off between
getting actual improvements/fixes in 2.2 and the risk of new breakage. In either
case, the upgrade to 2.2 will reduce the number of patches in Fedora's packages
and will hopefully help with improving Audacious further.    * If you use
additional plugin packages from 3rd party repositories, please be patient and
wait for their package updates. The plugins for 2.1 will not work with 2.2 due
to a changed input plugin API.    * If you need a Musepack SV7 file format
player, you need to watch out for the "ffaudio" plugin in a 3rd party
repository. The "musepack" plugin (based on libmpcdec) has been discontinued.
* If you need a MIDI file player, install audacious-plugins-amidi as the old
plugin based on libtimidity has been discontinued.    * If you need a SID file
player, install the separate audacious-plugins-sid package for a plugin based on
libsidplay 1. Third party repositories may provide a package for a plugin based
on libsidplay 2.    * If you use the ALSA output driver without Pulse Audio,
Audacious 2.2 includes a new driver called "alsa-gapless". You may need to
readjust your audio output preferences in Audacious.

ChangeLog:

* Tue Jan 26 2010 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-10.pl14
- Fix too missing open file descriptors issue in adplug plugin.
- Guard against out-of-bounds array access in adplug .lds decoder.
* Mon Jan 25 2010 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-10.pl13
- In neon transport, after error handling set destroyed session
  pointers to NULL, so vfs seek doesn't crash.
* Fri Jan  8 2010 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-10
- In neon transport, after error handling set destroyed request
  pointers to NULL, so vfs read exits early.
* Fri Jan  8 2010 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-9
- Enable modplug plugin again: The code is an "in-progress rewrite [...]
  with many fixes for module formats not available in libmodplug, and is
  built partially on top of the work that the Schism Tracker authors have
  been doing.  Using libmodplug would be a step backwards as far as module
  compatibility goes." (AUDPLUG-158)
* Sat Jan  2 2010 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-8
- Fix stack smashing in ui_svis_expose (#551801).
* Thu Dec 31 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-7
- Fix xspf Container plugin's handling of plain file names.
- Disable modplug plugin (where is it compared with libmodplug and
  its fixes and CVEs?). Give precedence to audacious-plugin-xmp
- Remove BR libmodplug-devel as the modplug plugin has never used
  the external library.
* Wed Dec 30 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-6
- Fix the alarm plugin.
* Fri Dec 25 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-5
- Remove BR libtimidity-devel as that plugin is no longer available.
* Fri Dec 25 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-4
- Let bluetooth plugin access "alsa-gapless" config values not "alsa"
  as it will be called in post-2.2.
* Sat Dec 19 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-3
- Beat bluetooth plugin a bit.
- Fix missing aud_cfg_db_close calls.
- Avoid that neon's ne_request_destroy() is called with a NULL ptr.
* Wed Dec  2 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-2
- Move SID music plugin into audacious-plugins-sid package. Its 
  built with libsidplay 1 while 3rd party package providers may
  build it with libsidplay 2.
- Include metronome plugin in base plugins package. No reason to
  split this off into an optional subpackage.
* Wed Nov 25 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-1
- Upgrade to 2.2 (declared as the next "stable release" after 2.1).
- The ladspa plugin has been reworked since beta2.
* Tue Nov 24 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org>
- BR libcue-devel which is available now and is enabled by default
  post 2.2-beta2
- Drop --disable-tta switch as that plugin is gone.
* Fri Nov 13 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org>
- Remove BR libmpcdec-devel ("musepack" plugin is not available anymore
  after 2.1 as it got removed in favour of "ffaudio"/ffmpeg plugin).
* Tue Nov 10 2009 Michael Schwendt <mschwendt at fedoraproject.org> - 2.2-0.4.beta2
- Upgrade to 2.2-beta2
- Add patch to use old/working ladspa plugin from 2.0.1 (#533641).
