Description Rüdiger Kupper 2017-10-20 13:29:57 UTC

After update to Ubuntu 17.10 Artful Aardvark, logitechmediaserver 7.9 fails to start with message:

The following modules failed to load: DBI EV XML::Parser::Expat HTML::Parser JSON::XS Digest::SHA1 Sub::Name


Output of perl -v:

This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 0 (v5.26.0) built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
(with 56 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)


Ist this a bug or missing dependencies? If so, which ubuntu packages to install?

Yeah, we still lack support for Perl 5.26. Check forums.slimdevices.com for workarounds/instructions how to fix this in the meantime.

Comment 2 Rüdiger Kupper 2017-10-25 15:10:36 UTC

Today's nightly of 7.9.1 works with Ubuntu Artful.

Thanks for the feedback!
