make a note about requirements of python3 and gmake
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Hi, thank you very much for this script, and improving it again!
I just figured out that on my freebsd box, which has bsdmake installed, the line "make install clean" doesn't work.
Using 'gmake clean install' worked just fine.
Maybe you could add a sentence in the readme to give others a heads-up when they are running into the same situation as me that gmake is required (at least that's my assumption).
And, 2 minutes after first posting this issue, I noticed that the standard python on freebsd 10 (which is still python2) would throw this error:
File "/usr/local/bin/whatmp3", line 157
print("ERROR: %s: %s" % (r, msg), file=sys.stderr)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
so I did went and installed python3 (v3.4 in my case) and tada: i'm now in transcoding heaven!
is python3 actually required? if yes it would probably a good idea to explain it along with the other requirements.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention; in a8f8c50 I updated the shebang to require python3, and added a note in the README about requiring gmake.
