Update for Banshee

I notice that the Banshee on LMDE is 2.4.1. There is a new 2.6.0 out.
How can I get it? It isn't in the Debian repository.
Can I download and install it from the Ubuntu rep??
Thanks,

Installing it from the Ubuntu repository is not recommended. You can, however, download the source and build from there, or grab the .deb package from a relevant website. I can point you in the right direction if you can tell me what architecture you're on. Are you using an amd64 or i386 install of LMDE?

Thanks for the reply. I am using the i386 install.

Give the following file a download:
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/ma ... 6_i386.deb
and run the following in a terminal:
Code: Select all
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/banshee_2.6.0-6_i386.deb
Report back with any errors (if any).

Tried it and receive the following:
error processing /path/to/banshee_2.6.0-6_i386.deb (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
/path/to/banshee_2.6.0-6_i386.deb
Remember I'm running the 201303 RC version of LMDE.

That's because the .deb file you downloaded isn't in /path/to. That part should be replaced with where the file is actually located.
