Hey! Just wanted to say I'm loving Kronos so far. I started using it yesterday. Downloaded the compiled binary from the v0.69 release.

Just now I git clone'd the project, installed rust and cargo and whatnot, and am now running it from cargo run --release just fine.

Thanks for building and sharing this!

I have zero experience with Rust, but hopefully I'll be able to contribute a bit.

I've been using cmus for a year or two, and I certainly miss its features, but I can't stand how it needs apt install'ing a bunch of dependencies to be able to run it, and haven't been able to support flac after I moved from Ubuntu 22 to 24.

On that note, I do have one question: does the Kronos build process yield a statically-linked, fully functioning binary that can run in any Linux distro without any external dependencies? It does run for me now, but I did install a bunch of dev apt dependencies just yesterday (all the ones required by cmus, actually) and am wondering if they impact this thing at all.

Hey, thanks for reaching out, I’m glad you like the project. In the test builds I use, the only thing I have to install is rust and libasounds2-dev which comes with most ready made distros to my knowledge.
