New major version released upstream. Please bump. Reproducible: Always
emms-3.0 looks o.k. with Emacs 22. However, with Emacs 21 I get: >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/app-emacs/emms-3.0/work/emms-3.0 ... While compiling toplevel forms in file /var/tmp/portage/app-emacs/emms-3.0/work/emms-3.0/emms-lastfm.el: !! File error (("Cannot open load file" "url")) Done make: *** [emms-lastfm.elc] Error 1 Seems it does not work with Emacs 21 anymore. OTOH, I can find nothing in the documentation saying that Emacs 22 would be required now. Could you ask upstream for clarification?
Hi, emms, or at least the emms-lastfm.el module, require the url library. That library is part of GNU Emacs 22.1. In Emacs 21 it was part of the w3 browser package, so that has to be a dependency for emacsen < 21. But since there were some recent changes to the url library short before emms 3.0 was released, I'm not too sure if emms-lastfm will work with it. At least it should compile... Bye, Tassilo (emms dev)
Ups, that has to be "...so that has to be a dependency for emacsen < 22."

Emacs/w3 is not in portage and I think that it makes no sense to add it to satisfy emms's dependencies with Emacs 21. *emms-3.0 (11 Jul 2007) 11 Jul 2007; Ulrich Mueller <ulm@gentoo.org> files/50emms-gentoo.el, emms-2.1.ebuild, +emms-3.0.ebuild: Version bump; Emacs 22 is needed now, updated SRC_URI, LICENSE changed to GPL-3; fixes bug #184920. Use autoload mechanism in site-init file.
