I'm using Intel 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04. I downloaded the .deb file and tried to install it. dpkg complained about missing packages libqtwebkit4 and upmpdcli. I tried to install these packages using apt-get and got messages saying that libqtwebkit4 requires upmpdcli and upmpdcli is not available. I have two questions:

1) What should I do to install the missing dependencies?

2) Does upplay use MPD? It seems that upmpdcli is a client for MPD. I don't wish to install MPD or use it as my renderer.

for libqtwebkit, you need to install the libqtwebkit4 package, this is standard from the Ubuntu repositories.

upplay does not use MPD, it needs the upmpdcli installation because of a shared library which comes with upmpdcli and which is used by upplay. The shared lib contains UPnP code and has nothing to do with MPD.

There is no link betweeen upmpdcli and upplay other than they use the same library, and that the easiest way to get this library at the moment is to install upmpdcli, which will also need libmpdclient2 as a dependancy.

This is just a temporary inconvenience, and it does not mean that you need to run MPD in any way. I'll clean up the package structure (separate the library) ASAP, but upmpdcli is being integrated as the UPnP front-end for a few specialized distributions at the moment and I want to wait for this to be stabilized before I shake the tree.

To prevent upmpdcli from starting up, just delete its init file:

rm /etc/init.d/upmpdcli
