New NSLU2 and mt-daapd issue on unslung v6.8

[furtive]

My new NSLU2 arrived yesterday so I wasted no time in hacking it.

I installed Unslung v6.8 as per the instructions here with no problems, and have installed mt-daapd which gave the following result:

# ipkg install -force-reinstall mt-daapd
Reinstalling mt-daapd (0.2.4-1) on root…
Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/nslu2/cross/stable/mt-daapd_0.2.4-1_armeb.ipk
conffile_has_been_modified: conffile /opt/etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.conf has no md5sum
conffile_has_been_modified: conffile /opt/etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.playlist has no md5sum
Configuring mt-daapd

To complete this installation, make any necessary changes
to the config file in /opt/etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.conf, and
start the daemon by running /opt/etc/init.d/S60mt-daapd

However, when I try and start it by running

# /opt/etc/init.d/S60mt-daapd

I get the following error:

/opt/sbin/mt-daapd: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

I have searched my slugs disk and the file libz.so does not exist – could it be missing from the 6.8 release of unslung? Or can anyone think of anything else I might have done wrong?

I tried enabling logging by editing /opt/etc/init.d/S60mt-daapd and also added -d2 to the command line in the script, but there is no log being generated in /var/log[/url]

I seem to have fixed it by re-running

# ipkg update
# ipkg install unslung-feeds
# ipkg update

and then running

ipkg install -force-overwrite mt-daapd

(which said it had nothing to do)

I also had to change the path of my mp3 folder from /share/hdd/data/public/mp3 to just /public/mp3

I now see mt-daapd in iTunes. However, I also see firefly 😮

I’ll see if I can sort that out…

EDIT: Stupidity alert. The Firefly server was running on my PC!
