amarok package review and RFS (II)
hi all,
I'm looking for a sponsor for my amarok package, which as you may know
is a "new" audio player for KDE. the package is relatively simple and
contains few if not none KDE specific issues.
hoping that this may encourage some DD to step in, I must say that I
won't nag you with all sort of packaging questions, as I usually do
struggle myself enough until I get things sorted out.

I'll also appreciate any input from the members of the list wrt the
quality of the packages. there was a thread [1] about amarok back in
June. the maintainer then was Peter Rockai, who has handed me the
packaging, and there have been some changes since then [2].

apart from the packaging itself, I'll also be happy if some native
English speaker reviews the long descriptions and corrects any flaws
in them.

the packages (built inside pbuilder) are available from the kalyxo
experimental repository: <http://www.kalyxo.org/debian/>. direct
access to the sources:
http://www.kalyxo.org/debian/pool/a/amarok/amarok_1.1-cvs.orig.tar.gz
http://www.kalyxo.org/debian/pool/a/amarok/amarok_1.1-cvs-0+kalyxo1.dsc
http://www.kalyxo.org/debian/pool/a/amarok/amarok_1.1-cvs-0+kalyxo1.diff.gz
NOTE: the packages are a CVS snapshot, which I've decided to package
mostly in order to have the debian/ subdir prepared for when 1.1 comes
out. as such, the target release is 'experimental'.
I'm asking for upload to Debian of a CVS snapshot to gain sometime
before the official 1.1 release, since amarok has to go through NEW
processing. the only required change would be:
$ sed -i -e '1s/-0+kalyxo[0-9]*/-1/' debian/changelog
thanks all,
