Exaile!

December 30th, 2006 by Matt Bracewell · No Comments

Matt’s music player of choice under ubuntu. Essentially does the same job as iTunes without the online sales bit. Playlists, external media, rating, album art, id3 tags etc
http://www.exaile.org/

Can I upgrade my version after having apt-get install(ed) it?
A quick visit to getdeb revealed a newer SoftwarePackage exaile_0.2.5b-1getdeb1_i386.deb so I downloaded that and installed it using the GUI(gdebi 0.1.4ubuntu13), clicked my desktop icon and … nothing! Invoking the app from the command line gave me this error

matt@precuntu:~$ exaile
Traceback (most recent call last):

This ubuntu forum link provided a source for the missing python-mutagen package so I was able to download, build and install as per the instructions there.
