Picard 2.0 dev available via PyPi | MusicBrainz Blog

Sambhav’s GSoC project is all about Picard 2.0, and among progress made the devel version is now installable via PyPi: http://ift.tt/2qDreSU

To install the dev builds you need to have a Python 3.5 or greater. At the moment it is mainly a port of 1.4.x to Python 3 and Qt5, with support for HiDPI and new icons !

Please note that Picard Dev version uses a different config file than your stable Picard installation. As such the settings and plugins will be on their default configuration.

To use your stable config with the dev version, simple copy your “Picard.ini” file from your MusicBrainz user folder to “Picard Dev.ini” which can be found in the same folder.

Since testers may want to run a stable 1.4.x version along the 2.0 dev one, the executable is named “picard_dev”.

Of course, we encourage people to test this version on every platform they can, and report any issue.

Thanks to Sambhav Khotari for the fantastic job he did on this ! And stay tuned, more to come !
