"Tested" means I've built against that version; earlier or later versions will
often work too.
Runtime dependencies:
- * Players:
- + ogg123 and mpg321 work for me, but you could potentially use others.
* Web server:
+ Apache 1.3.x works for me, but anything that supports CGI and
authentication should be suitable.
+ * Separate player programs are no longer required (but may still be used)
Development dependencies (only developers will need these):
- Automake 1.9.4 AM_PATH_PYTHON not good enough in 1.7
- Autoconf 2.59
- Libtool 1.5.6 1.4 not good enough
+ Automake 1.10 AM_PATH_PYTHON not good enough in 1.7
+ Autoconf 2.61
+ Libtool 1.5.22 1.4 not good enough
Bazaar (bzr)

2. Install it. Most of the installation is done via the install target:
make installdirs install
- The CGI interface has to be installed separately, and you must use Libtool
- to install it. For instance:
-
- ./libtool --mode=install install -m 755 progs/disorder.cgi /usr/local/lib/cgi-bin/disorder

3. Create a 'jukebox' user and group, with the jukebox group being the default
group of the jukebox user. The server will run as this user and group.
4. Create /etc/disorder/config. Start from examples/config.sample and adapt it
to your own requirements. In particular, you should:
- * edit the 'player' commands to reflect the software you have installed.
+ * add 'player' commands for any file formats not supported natively
* edit the 'collection' command to identify the location(s) of your own
digital audio files. These commands also specify the encoding of
filenames, which you should be sure to get right as recovery from an
See disorder_config(5) for more details.
+ See README.raw for details on setting up "raw format" players, which allow
+ for pausing and gapless play.
+
5. Create /etc/disorder/config.private. This should be readable only by the
jukebox group:
See disorderd(8) and disorder_config(5) for more details.
-6. Make sure the server is started at boot time. On many Linux systems,
- examples/disorder.init should be more or less suitable; install it in
- /etc/init.d, adapting it as necessary, and make appropriate links from
- /etc/rc[0-6].d. If you have a BSD style init then you are on your own.

The track should stop playing, and (if you set any up) a scratch sound play.
-10. Add any other users you want to config.private. Each user's password
- should be stored in a file in their home directory, ~/.disorder/passwd,
- which should be readable only by them, and should take the form of a single
