Hello!

If saw in the changelog that some time ago support for the Perl bindings
was dropped - due to the immaturity of the code from what I gather. I
have experimented with the bindings and they work fine for a basic use
at least.

I played around with the debian/* files and discovered that the bulk of
the bits necessary to build the Perl bindings was still in place so I
produced a patch (attached) which is not very intrusive at all.

I am also attaching an example Perl script which allows you to display
the name of the track currently being played by Amarok to tests the
.debs produced by the patch.

Hope you get round to taking a look at the patch!

Cheers,
Jeremy

  perl bindings for dcop are ancient and not in release quality. we
won't enable them. since no one (except you) asked for them since
18month+ closing the bug.
