If after entering username/password you see a small window (with a going back and forth blue “slider”) saying:

“Completing post install setup”

most likely svc:/system/postrun/default service is not running.

Check the status:

and enable it if it’s disabled (for example, after a system upgrade)

After upgrading to snv_93 SqueezeCenter (quite predictably) refused to start again. The error was:

The issue is related to the same Scalar::Util module. Just force install it like explained here.

MAC (Monkey’s Audio Converter) for Windows can be downloaded from http://www.monkeysaudio.com. But what about a UNIX version? Two years ago v3.99 Update 4 Build 5 was released but then the development stopped because of some contradictory licensing reasons. That means that MAC for UNIX is not maintained anymore. Fortunately, the old version still works. I compiled it under Solaris 11 x86 and use it for SqueezeCenter.

The source tar file is attached to the post: mac-399-u4-b5.tgz (MD5)

Some notes.

• To check the MD5 digest:
  % md5sum -c mac-3.99-u4-b5.tgz.md5
  mac-3.99-u4-b5.tgz: OK
• Always use –prefix=/usr/local (or any other directory in which you keep non-standard files) configuration parameter, because by default the prefix is set to /usr. You might overwrite Solaris file /usr/bin/mac (message authentication code):
  % ./configure –prefix=/usr/local
• If you are going to use –enable-assembly=yes option (you need yasm to compile assembler code) under Solaris change “sh” to “bash” in src/MACLib/Assembly/Makefile in the following line (line 214 in my case):
  STRIP_FPIC = sh $(top_srcdir)/strip_fPIC.sh

  This is what the line should look like:

  STRIP_FPIC = bash $(top_srcdir)/strip_fPIC.sh
• There is already a program /bin/mac (see above). If you don’t want to use the full path to the MAC, simply rename the latter:
  # mv /usr/local/bin/mac /usr/local/bin/MAC

Tried to install Vermillion 94 yesterday (GNOME 2.23.4) but had to fail back to nevada_92 (GNOME 2.22.2), because 94 was almost unusable (e.g. right button did not work, window manager did not want to start automatically, etc). Both installers failed to install JDS correclty (missed or incorrectly configured packages and files).
For example, libgnome-desktop-2.so.2 was missing in v94.
