iTunes 10 breaks Firefly Media Server / mt-daapd – what a bullshit! Here is how to fix it:
1. add following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian lenny main
2. (i got an error updating the apt-get sources because of less memory for package library)
so add following line to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf
APT::Cache-Limit 55165824;
The value is just an example.. at least about double the preset value from the ubuntu system
3. update the apt-get sources
sudo apt-get update
4. install forked-daapd from the debian apt-get sources
sudo apt-get install forked-daapd
5. (Here a library was not in the correct version) -> update the libcrypt library
sudo apt-get install libgcrypt11
Finally this worked for me. Just start the forged-daapd server
sudo /etc/init.d/forged-daapd start
Hope this helps some of you
By the way… forged-daapd uses the same port as mt-daapd as default port. If you already have a old dappd version using the same port, you will only get the forged-daapd server listed in iTunes when the old daapd version is stopped or removed from the system.
6. sudo apt-get remove mt-daapd
7. sudo vim /etc/forked-daapd.conf (change directories to your music path)
8. sudo /etc/init.d/forked-daapd start
