Annoying. Guess this just move to priority on my **** to do list. Then it'll be another 2 months to get it back to extras and then Pandora will change again :rolleyes:.

This could get old...

How can I tell if the scrobbling to last.fm is working?

I've been playing a lot of music with the command line pianobar, and I have put my last.fm user name and password in the ./config/pianobar/config file but the last.fm website does not show the tracks played in the "Recently Listened Tracks" list.

Thanks for a great application.

This was removed from the latest pianobar's.

What is the status of your package version 2.1-0? Will you promote or reject it?

Thanks.

I promoted pianobar... but it'll probably be the last new version of it.

What's unfortunate is there is no way for a maintainer to remove a package that I am no longer supporting.. so when Pandora updates their API version again.. pianobar is going to be break and be stuck there :(.

I have moved to (slowly) developing up pyRadio instead of maintaining the CLI + GUI Wrapper of pianobar/pyPianobar.

I have not searched for it, but maybe you want to create a brainstorm if it does not exist.
I saw a problem in: Many tested apps in Extras-testing are not promoted timely.
BTW: pypianobar 2.1-1 is also promotable.

pyPianobar I won't be promoting. pyRadio is the future there and already has added features and a few fixes over pyPianobar.

(it also manages to have a few new bugs considering the whole backend changed.. which is why it's not yet in testing.)

Pianobar still appeals to a very specific niche of people that prefer very lightweight CLI-only apps. There's no real reason to use pyPianobar over pyRadio that I'm aware of at this point. (If there is, let me know so I can fix it in pyRadio, not pyPianobar.)

Unfortunately.. there's no way for me to "un" promote it back to devel.. same problem as above.

I thought about making a solution but it's not really a problem with "apps in testing" not being promoted.. so much as a problem with the managed of the build system as a whole. A maintainer cannot un-promote, or remove, apps that are no longer being maintained.

If you vote for your own package with thump down it is removed from Extras-testing and then it is removed from the list of apps to test. That would have the advantage that no tester spends time on this app.

I was unaware of that, thank you. I tried it and it didn't seem to work, but that's probably because promotion is already unlocked.

I would have done this long time ago if I had known that..

ETA: Think it worked.. I got an email.
