rhythmbox.i686 0:2.90.1-6.git20110328.fc15   

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play something in rhythmbox
2. Open Terminal
3. Type "rhythmbox-client --next"
  
Actual results:
Command not found

Expected results:
Next Track begins to play

Additional info:

Comment 1 aten 2011-07-02 19:40:39 UTC
I confirm. Used to have 

XF86AudioNext :ExecCommand rhythmbox-client --next --no-start
XF86AudioPrev :ExecCommand rhythmbox-client --previous --no-start
XF86AudioPlay :ExecCommand rhythmbox-client --play-pause 

to control rhythmbox 

now it says 
"rhythmbox-client: command not found..." :(

Comment 2 Vadim Raskhozhev 2011-07-26 15:58:35 UTC
I confirm either. There is a man page for rhythmbox-client in rhythmbox-2.90.1-10.git20110502.fc15.x86_64 but there's no rhythmbox-client itself

Comment 3 Maarten 2011-09-30 10:55:46 UTC
Confirm, yum install rhythmbox-client doesn't work either

Comment 4 galileopy 2011-10-11 14:11:14 UTC
Confirm both.

yum install rhythmbox-client doesn't work
rhythmbox-client is not installed and can't find a way to install it

Comment 5 Neil Bird 2012-05-02 19:07:03 UTC
Still missing (but has a man page) in Fedora 16.

Comment 6 Neil Bird 2012-05-05 11:51:41 UTC
This was briefly removed upstream by the looks of it do a move to dbus comms.

Reinstated by commit:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/rhythmbox/commit/?id=5ec27a0dece6eb6d7e4d77da4f02f393bbe5c47f

That patch applies cleanly to the current F16 SRPM & does built a rhythmbox-client, but that then doesn't seem to work for me (no errors, just doesn't do anything).

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 15:16:05 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
