It was inspired by ncmpcpp and aims to provide an alternative with support for album art through kitty image protocol without any ugly hacks. It also features ranger/lf inspired browsing of songs and other goodies. Written by Mierak on Github. Find the upstream code at and documentation on their website If you want to use the playlists feature, make sure your mpd.conf file uses /var/snap/rmpc/common/playlists for the playlist directory to make it available inside snap confinement. The configuration file is located in /var/snap/rmpc/common/config.ron and can be modified there. This snap requires MPD to be installed on the base system. This may change in the future. Rmpc is still maturing. It is stable for daily use, although breaking changes, while rare, are sometimes unavoidable. ### Package name * rmpc --- ### License * BSD-3-Clause --- ### Last updated * 3 August 2026 - latest/stable * 7 October 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [mierak.github.io](https://mierak.github.io/rmpc/ "https://mierak.github.io/rmpc/") --- ### Source code * [github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap](https://github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap "https://github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap/issues](https://github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap/issues "https://github.com/craig-rylance/rmpc-snap/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/rmpc/centos#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on CentOS and install rmpc Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build.

The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command: ``` sudo yum install epel-release ``` Snap can now be installed as follows: ``` sudo yum install snapd ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install rmpc To install rmpc, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install rmpc ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
