1. solfege won't launch

# pkg_add solfege
$ solfege
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/solfege", line 55, in <module>
    import solfege.startup
  File "/usr/local/share/solfege/solfege/startup.py", line 45, in
<module> from solfege.mainwin import MainWin, SplashWin
  File "/usr/local/share/solfege/solfege/mainwin.py", line 28, in
<module> i = webbrowser._tryorder.index("x-www-browser")
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'index'

patch /usr/local/share/solfege/solfege/mainwin.py

27a28
>     webbrowser.get()

taken from:
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/solfege.git
less solfege/solfege/mainwin.py

makes solfege launch.

there is another suggestion (someone had the same error 5 years ago):
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63703
> Insert the following line before line 28:
> webbrowser.register_standard_browsers()

27a28
>     webbrowser.register_standard_browsers()

also works (on my machine).

Or maybe solfege wants an update instead of a patch?


2. Having launched solfege, it doesn't play sounds,
throwing errors at you, until you install timidity.

Perhaps, timidity should be a dependency?
