Steve Passert has been doing the world a favor by packaging a variety of useful programs, which you can find here. For some strange reason, Debian decided to stop packaging aqualung, which is in my opinion the best music player in the free software world, being one of the only players made for serious music fans.

download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/stevepassert/Debian_9.0/amd64/

You can find all his packages under this: download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/stevepassert/

Obviously these may not always work on the latest Debian Sid or Testing, but my experience has been pretty good so far.

He's connected to MX linux, and I assume he makes these packages for the MX users as well as himself and others out there, like me.

You'll also need to install:


but check by installing the deb with: dpkg -i <aqualung deb file name>

mirrors.kernel.org/debian/pool/main/libc/libcdio/

has the primary changed packages:
aqualung_1.0-1jessie1_amd64.deb libcdio-cdda1_0.83-4.3+b1_amd64.deb
libcdio13_0.83-4.3+b1_amd64.deb libcdio-paranoia1_0.83-4.3+b1_amd64.deb
