So the tards developing amarok want to stuff ruby and other crap down my throat. I went to the official channel on Freenode and told them the configure script is mising an option to turn off some "daap" crap I don't need or have any use for and that the configure script was broken, failing if ruby isn't available (as it's only really used during compile of "daap" anyway).

I have updated the infoplug hack some and made patches for amarok 1.3.7 and 1.4.0-svn (current trunk).
I fixed a bug which made it show current time in minutes:seconds instead of hours:minutes:seconds when the time was 60 minutes or more..
Also, Last Played have now been added.

1.3.7
1.4.0-svn

Only 1.4.0-svn version have been tested. Second chunk for app.h is different for 1.3.7 and it applies with some fuzz, hopefully it will compile too! =)

How much fun can you have with the tenary operator ?
Well, since you can do stuff which wouldn't otherwise be possible for variable variables, it allows for much fun!
Just have a look at this "beauty"!

The other day, as the only user of php-irssi (if there's anyone else using it please make yourself known!), Wez asked me to check if it compiled against latest PHP cause someone had some problems with it. It compiled fine but most scripts didn't work, well, anything that actually did something didn't work. It turned out to be a signature change related to objects in the PHP_5_1 branch that caused some problems.

It should be fixed now, so if you want to be cool like me and write your IRC scripts in PHP, get php-irssi now!
