Lyrion/logitech media server

I notice that the upgrade of perl from 5.40 to 5.42 breaks lyrion media server (aka logitechmediaserver), with errors like

Image::Scale (loaded 0.08 but missing object file, need 0.08)
  XML::Parser:
Parser.pm and Expat.pm versions don't match at /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/XML/Parser.pm line 20

Hopefully, somebody at the AUR site will fix this.

rebuild - did you rebuild - custom packages (may)(often) need rebuild - did you rebuild - if you did rebuild and still have issues - you must contact the maintainer of the custom package you are using or fix it yourself…

yes, I rebullt, tried lyrionmusicserve-bin, etc. all gave same error. You’re right, the maintainer will hopefully look into this

Hope and wishful thinking rarely solves anything, however, actually contacting the maintainer might:

Hey, this might take a while to fix

…which means one will have to wait for upstream.

Normally, one needs to rebuild Perl packages when there’s a new version like we just had–5.4.0 > 5.4.2.

However, in this case the package is a binary release directly from upstream.

:wink:

No real rush; not that I like it (for philosophical reasons) but docker image works fine.
