Bug#396894: O: beep-media-player
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I have no time nor interest to work on this package. I solely use
Rhythmbox myself and I used to sponsor two sponsorees for this package who
either abandoned it or were unable to continue working on it due to health
reasons. The package has a _lot_ of open bugs and maybe shouldn't even
make it into Etch IMHO.
Beep Media Player development was discontinued by upstream over a year ago.
They resumed their work and created BMPx, a reincarnation of Beep Media
Player but with a different approach. BMP was also forked by another group
with the aim to retain the XMMS-style interface, and they created
Audacious. Both of these related players have been available in Debian for
a few weeks now.
Regards,
Paul
