mpg321 is dead upstreamI don't see that as a show stopper.
Please consider moving to another player, e.g. mpg123.I moved away from ffmpeg after c-evo-dh showed a puiparts fail

Please consider moving to another player, e.g. mpg123.I moved away from ffmpeg after c-evo-dh showed a puiparts fail
stemming from libnettle8. c-evo-dh does not use any crypto stuff,
that library was brought in by ffmpeg.
I picked mpg321 over mpg123 because it it has fewer dependencies.
Also, mpg123 is broken

mpg321 uses fixed point arithmetic, and is likely to be a better
choice on low spec architectures with no floating point (armel).
I would prefer to keep mpg321 as the sound option for c-evo-dh
Noting the user-tag mpg321-removal on your bug report,
I could instead maintain mpg321 myself if it were orphaned...
There are loads of old bugs including rather severe ones at firstNoted
glance. The fact that the packaging is very dated is not the real
problem (Updating to dh could probably be done in in an , since it os basically a single binary package.) There is just a lot of technical
debt due to missing upstream, it does not need maintainership but a new upstream author.
On my local system there simply is no sound output, I suspect it cannot
work when pipewire or pulseaudio is used.
