Audacious upgrade for Slackware 14?


With slackware 14 looming perhaps this is a good time to upgrade the stock audacious package? Some great work being done by the audacious team with 3.2.4 being released just a few days ago.

Perhaps also the 2 audacious slackbuilds would benefit from the addition of the following ./configure option:

Code:
  --with-buildstamp=$ARCH-slackware-linux
which gives a clean build description with:

Code:
andrew@skamandros~$ audacious -v
Audacious 3.2.4 (x86_64-slackware-linux)
Working without any issues on my -current system.

Not sure how Pat will feel about the buildstamp, but I added it to my updates here (already had the audacious bumps anyway)...

I see no harm from --with-buildstamp in Audacious, but do like to avoid that sort of identification in Internet facing services. Anyway, thanks for the tip!
