Today, after a DU with apt dist-upgrade, these packages will be removed: Exaile & Nicotine+.

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  geoip-database-contrib libgeoip1 miniupnpc python-cddb python-geoip python-gobject

Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  exaile nicotine python-mutagen
The following packages will be upgraded:
  python3-mutagen
1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 3 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
Need to get 147 kB of archives.
After this operation, 17.5 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n
Abort.


Since they are packages from the SparkyLinux repository.
This issue can be resolved without any problems or these packages will be lost?  :-\ 

I have no interest in maintaining exaile (because I don't use it).

But I am interested in keeping Nicotine+ (because I use it a lot)

Looks like both require python-mutagen which is not available for Sparky 6/Debian Bullseye any more (repalced with python3-mutagen).
I build exaile myself so I will try to rebuild it with python3-mutagen.
Nicotine++ is an old package, no upgraded for long time so works on older libs, means on Sparky stable now, so can't fix it on Sparky 6, sorry.

Thank you very much, for your quick response, pavroo   ;)

I've finally removed exaile, nicotine and all dependencies ... And now, I'll just use the version I have installed on another machine, with debian Stable.

I want to take this opportunity, to thank you again, for all your excellent work at SparkyLinux.

BTW, I want to send my support and encouragement, to all the people who are helping, healing and fighting to defeat the f***ing coronavirus

Cheers!!   ;)
