Look, I've financially supported moode in the past. I wanted to build it again. I found there is a script here now and I followed it faithfully. But not blindly as I've worked on several RPi projects so I have a couple of basic notions around what can go wrong.
Everything is fine until we start the MOSBUILD process. The process is an arrow launched at that point, which is frustrating. Especially to come back after a while and find it quit for a trivial and preventable reason.
Failure 1- After getting the exact build of Raspian stretch lite required per Githib, I STILL got an error on rc-local.service failed. This required a change in RASPBIAN code and restart per Google.
Failure 2 - multiple broken packages. This required me to fix them and start yet again. Now I am 2 plus hours in, partly because I have no idea whether it is done yet and don't want to unplug it and restart to just check.
Failure 3 - moslog only says '** Error: should never arrive at case = *' This message repeats 10 times. That is all it says. No idea what this means or how far it got, or how to fix it. I have 3 hours invested in it now. Gave up and went to bed.
This process is like fumbling in the dark. I really loved moode player, but I can't love this build process at all. Heck, back in the day I wrote assembler code, but that was on old dumb terminals and I could at least see what was happening/had happened....
