Description of problem:
Please build latest audacious for EPEL 6. I am using CentOS 6 on my workstation
and it makes sense for me to have also a multimedia player ("xmms++") there. It
seems to be clever to use the latest legacy version with gtk2 support here.

I applied the following patch to the *.spec of audacious-3.2.4-2.fc17 to make
it building:

Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2013-12-01 20:09:25 UTC
It may be clever indeed since 3.4.x hasn't been bad, but offering EPEL builds of Audacious is not something I'm interested in. That's due to the number of fixes that only happen as a result of core/ABI/API changes.

Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2013-12-01 20:11:26 UTC
I was thinking about 3.2.x especially as upstream seems to require gtk3 with
3.4.x now - except I did misget them.

Comment 3 Michael Schwendt 2013-12-01 20:18:28 UTC
I meant "3.2.x" (F17) in my previous reply. That was only a typo.
