Public bug reported:
ncmpcpp:
Installed: 0.7.4-1build3
Candidate: 0.7.4-1build3
Version table:
*** 0.7.4-1build3 500
500 http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful/universe amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
When I start ncmpcpp, I am met with the message "ncmpcpp: connection
refused", but there is no sign of this in mpd.log on the server. On my
zesty machine it works perfectly, even though it is using the same
version of the package, and both are using the exact same config file
(copied across with scp). Other mpd clients like gmpc works fine from
the artful machine.
The really weird thing is that if I launch it with 'ncmpcpp -h hostname
-p 6600' it works.
I have double- and triple-checked the config file, including rewriting
it all by hand and removing everything non-essential. I also tried
upgrading to v0.8.1 from
https://launchpad.net/~aguignard/+archive/ubuntu/ppa, but that gives the
same result.
The only thing I can think of is that something must have changed from
zesty to artful to cause this, but it's beyond me to figure out what.
Something in the dependencies (libbost?), maybe.
Should I file this upstream, or is there something else I can try? I
really want to avoid switching to another mpd client.
