MPD fails to start: libavformat-ffmpeg issue?

[martin-by]

Hello,

I made a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 lts (ARMBIAN) on armhf cubietruck (Armbian_5.20_Cubietruck_Ubuntu_xenial_3.4.112) .

libav-tools is installed along with MPD & MPC.

service mpd status reports:
"mpd[6770]: /usr/bin/mpd: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat-ffmpeg.so.56: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

What is missing to start MPD?

Best regards,

Martin

Hi,

 

I tested a MPD install on Armbian_5.20_Cubietruck_Ubuntu_xenial_4.7.3:

 

• apt update
• apt upgrade
• apt install mpd mpc

It is the same issue:

 

â— mpd.service - Music Player Daemon

Any tip to fix this?

There is an issue with packages configuration, it will be fixed with new image release.

When will be the next release?

We haven't set a date yet, probably end of the month, hopefully before we plan to put out a bugfix release.

[martin-by]

Ok, thank you for your quick response! So I have to wait until this new release.

Hello,

 

today I made a upgrade & dist-upgrade, it seems MPD & MINIDLNA starts the service now.

 

Thank you!

 

Remark:

but mounting a HDD partition in fstab fails and after boot the system hangs. My entry in fstab from old config is:

UUID=638a7add-21ee-4cf7-8c1e-095c4ae727ff /mnt/HDD ext4 user,sync 0 0

 

Any hint for this?

 

 

UPDATE:

after falling back to my backup I realized the root of permanent reboot:

 

Installed software after update & dist-upgrade :

• WEBMIN, MPD, MINIDLNA (proper reboot of system)
• apt install cups: no reboot any more (reboot within minutes)

 

Are there any other problems within package?

 

UPDATE2:

​OK, my fault. After installing my SSD for root device (deactivating tempfs & swap within fstab also) CUPS can be installed easily without any problems.

 

 

Best regards,

 

Martin
