mpdscribble not working

Two different systems, two different mpdscribble versions, neither one wants to work.

1. mpdscribble-git won't install on laptop.

mpdscribble-git 20100320-1 : A mpd client which submits information to last.fm.

2. mpdscribble on laptop writes to .journal file, won't connect to last.fm ('bad handshake'). username and pw are correct. pw was tried as md5sum hash, as hash in quotes ('<hash>'), and as actual plain text password.

3. mpdscribble-git on desktop doesn't write to .journal file, doesn't connect to last.fm (same as above).

## [mpdscribble] ##
#host =                 # defaults to $MPD_HOST or localhost
#port =                 #defaults to $MPD_PORT or 6600
log = /home/user/.mpdscribble/mpdscribble.log
verbose = 2
sleep = 1
musicdir = /mnt/seagate/music

## [last.fm] ##
url = http://post.audioscrobbler.com/
username = <username>
password = e9032456528a3495df299adfc3fda450  #(for ex.)
# Generate using "echo -n password | md5sum"
journal = /home/user/.mpdscribble/mpdscribble.journal

## [libre.fm] ##
url = http://turtle.libre.fm/
username = <username>
password = <pw>
journal = /home/user/.mpdscribble/mpdscribble.journal

Neither one are even trying to connect to libre.fm. Does it only connect to the first one? Seems like it should connect to both.  Don't know what's wrong - everything seems to be configured right. I've tried both with the .journal line in both sections, and alone in the top section. Have no idea what's wrong with -git installing on my laptop.

Re: mpdscribble not working

bump

>>> okay, desktop is working. Remove mpdscribble-git and put mpdscribble back on, and now it's working. Until it stops working, I guess, and then someone will make -git to get it working, until that stops working again, and then back to regular version till that breaks, and then lather, rinse repeat.

isn't linux fun?
