Looks like this package (or maybe one of its dependencies) needs gtk-doc as a dependency.
Can't exec "gtkdocize": No such file or directory at /usr/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 293. autoreconf: error: gtkdocize failed with exit status: 2
yep, someone adopt it
The package gconf-sharp seems to have vanished, so this package is currently useless as I can't install it due to missing dependencies
to prevent future out of date flags: if you want 2.9.x go to banshee-git.
2.9.x tags from gnome are non usable.
Don't be silly, just recompile banshee and it works
The latest taglib-sharp-git update brakes Banshee. (When playing a song an error message will appear, and Banshee will become unresponsive.) I suggest you update this, and the mono-upnp-git package to rely on the community taglib-sharp package instead, as with it Banshee still works. (I tested this by force removing taglib-sharp-git, and then installing taglib-sharp.)
@nicman23 in this version (non-git) banshee plays mp3 files after installing gst ugly plugin
also about mp3, sorry i do not use them :/ . Only use flacs and opus
@mxfm, i since moved to a fork that i somewhat help with (issues, testing pull requests) and is active.
see banshee-git.
@nicman23 - currently banshee indeed compiles, so it was fixed since October (last time when i tried). However, it cannot play mp3 files, probably it needs gst plugins.
Nevertheless, I still believe it support will be dropped in the future because banshee is not maintained. Take look at source code https://github.com/GNOME/banshee/commits/master?after=01c90930b32aff99a4e310bae04d0a61dee23b55+34. It has only translation updates since 2015. Software development advances and this increases burden of keeping old software up-to-date. The more time passes, the more efforts must be undertaken in making it work. This is especially relevant in archlinux where everything is kept up-to-date. Banshee was dropped from repos in late 2016 (https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/5dz5t5/banshee_dropped_from_repos_alternatives/), so i will not be surprised than in some point in the future even AUR maintaner will give up supporting it.
