Bug#579859: ITP: clementine -- Music player and library organizer

2011-04-11 Thread Thomas PIERSON
Hi,

Some news from Clementine packaging.

As you could see, 'libqxt' and 'libechonest' (the main missing depends of 
clementine) are pending for upload in Debian archive. [1]

There are many people to thank like Jérémy Bobbio for his sponsoring work, 
Lisandro who packaged 'libechonest', Bruno Bigras who send me patches for 
'libqxt' packaging... You will find a complete list in changelog files of these 
new packages.

The next step is to prepare clementine upload.
For the moment, 0.7.x release seem to be a good choice for a first official 
Debian package. 
Once the missing dependencies above reach unstable repository, clementine can 
be uploaded to Debian archive.

Regards,
Thomas PIERSON

Hi,

Some news from Clementine packaging.

As you could see, there is still no Clementine package in Debian archive cause 
of blocking issues about embedded libraries present in Clementine source code.

This is not a problem for Ubuntu but it is forbidden by Debian policy. This is 
the reason why a package was already available in Ubuntu but not yet in 
Debian.

Actually, there 2 major libraries that need to be packaged to satisfy 
Clementine depends and Debian policy : libqxt and libechonest.

I took the ITP of libqxt and I built a first experimental package. [1]
Maybe I will have to package libechonest too but for the moment I focus on 
libqxt.

All of my packaging works is published on GIT repositories [2]. I am using 
git-buildpackage tool for packaging.
So don't hesitate to clone these and send me patches or bundles if you look 
forward Clementine raise Debian archive.

Regards,
Thomas PIERSON
