Description

I suppose this might have been missed by the automatic version-checker script or whatever, but there is a much newer version of PNMixer available than what's currently in the book. It can be downloaded here:

https://github.com/nicklan/pnmixer/releases/tag/v0.7.2

The main changes are support for GTK3, and a switch to the CMake build system.

It can be installed with standard CMake build commands:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..
make
make install

GTK3 is used by default, though GTK2 can optionally be used instead if you add "-DWITH_GTK3=OFF". I haven't tested if this option is needed if you have only GTK2 installed without GTK3.

Also, alsa-utils is listed as a dependency, but it isn't actually needed at either build or runtime. The only time it might be used is when you try to open the "Mixer" from the volume control, but the mixer command can be changed to whatever you want. Alsa-lib is required, though.
