The Squeeze Community Repository maintains Fedora 20 and Fedora 23 packages for Logitech Media Server, SqueezeLite, and other a/v packages. It provides fairly recent versions of LMS 7.9 originating from the Slim Devices nightly repository.

The primary reason for installing the Squeeze Community repository on VortexBox 2.3 or 2.4 is to obtain a relatively recent version of LMS 7.9. For example, the current version of LMS in the VB 2.4 repository is the Feruary 20, 2016 snapshot of LMS 7.9. The current version of LMS in the Squeeze Community Fedora 23 repository is the May 29, 2016 snapshot of LMS 7.9 (as of June 6, 2016).

The current version of LMS in the VB 2.3 repository is LMS 7.8. The current version of LMS in the Squeeze Community Fedora 20 repository is the May 29, 2016 snapshot of LMS 7.9 (as of June 6, 2016).
