Hi all,

First my apologies for using this list to gather some aditional
information, but I'm trying to sort/clear all the bug reports
regarding Banshee on Bugzilla so I can keep track of new issues in the
future and try to improve our Banshee packages through better
coordination with upstream.

Regarding bnc#464645 [1], anyone knows if this has happened ? Why not
(if it didn't happened) ?

I also would like to inform that from openSUSE 12.1 onwards Banshee
should  be state of the art with the distribution providing all the
dependencies (with the required versioning). Me and Steven have placed
some effort in the Mono part for this to happen.

As many might be aware Ubuntu has intentions of dropping Banshee and
through the blogsphere some people are already being shelled, one of
them is the maintainer of Banshee in Ubuntu, we won't go through the
same issue as Banshee is good in openSUSE... planning to keep it this
way.

It's good to know it's being kept going in Opensuse, because it's a
great media player.

Hi Tim,

Glad to know it appreciated.

Just a friendly request though: please make sure the version that goes
into 12.1 is decent and maintained with bugfix and security updates as
much as possible. Adding a development project repo (which is what the
Banshee OBS is) is not the way to go for non-technical users or those of
us who want stable systems.

The release version on 12.1 is 2.2.0, but, as Vincent suggested, we
requested a maintenance update (once it goes into maintenance within a
week) to update it with 2.2.1 which solves a few crash issues,
improves the gnome-backend, closes a bug report on bugzilla and adds
DVD playback feature. In total, 29 nice bug fixes.

* bnc#727999

I assume we're going in the good path here and hopefully we'll be able
to match your expectations. Thanks for your feedback and helping us
improving Banshee and openSUSE.

NM
