ncmpc-svn and leoslyrics

Does anyone have this working? ive recompiled it a couple times with different lyric options ive found and none have worked.
the aur package im using now has the latest fix i could find in google and still cant get it to work. space and u give  [Leoslyrics - No access]

looks like the guy working on it stopped maintaining his branch too.

Re: ncmpc-svn and leoslyrics

This has annoyed me as well. The problem seems to be with leoslyrics, not ncmpc. If you try to search on the leoslyrics site it errors out.

I created a patch to use lyricsfly instead. Grab PKGBUILD and lyricsfly.patch to try it out. If you get the no access message, it means that the lyrics were not found. The artist and title have to be exact for the search to work here.

The api key I am using is the test one that changes every week, so you'll have to manually grab the new key here on Monday and modify the patch with it. If there is enough demand for this, I may clean up the code and request a permanent key.
