Pesky Changes You Cannot Ignore
- This update means the build process now uses the directory path
sysconfdir
to determine where to place the configuration fileshairport-sync.conf
. The default value forsysconfdir
is/usr/local/etc
which is used in the BSD family, whereas/etc
is normally used in Linux. So, to retain the present behaviour of Shairport Sync, you must add an extra parameter to the./configure...
command. The parameter you must add is--sysconfdir=/etc
. (This has been added to the sample configuration command line in README.md.) - Shairport Sync has been updated to use the value of
sysconfdir
to determine where to look for the configuration file. Ifsysconfdir
has been left with its default value of/usr/local/etc
, then Shairport Sync will look for/usr/local/etc/shairport-sync.conf
. If, as recommended for Linux,sysconfdir
has been set to/etc
, then Shairport Sync will look, as before, for/etc/shairport-sync.conf
.
Enhancement
- The version string output when you use the command-line option
-V
now includes the value of thesysconfdir
, e.g.2.8.4.7-OpenSSL-Avahi-ALSA-soxr-sysconfdir:/etc
.
