Bug#429178: workbone orphaned (#429178)



Hi Antti-Juhani,

Furthermore, there seems to be a version of workbone inside the workman sources. Since workbone is originally a fork of (a part of) workman, it would in my opinion make sense to unify these packages: namely, drop the separate workbone source and generate a workbone binary package from the workman sources.

I can at least confirm that it is easy to get a workbone package
from the workman sources. However, it is non-trivial to re-unify
the best features from both approaches. After the branching-off
from workman quite some work has been done to workbone to improve
the interface. On the other hand the workbone within workman has
profited from new features like CDDB support there. In any case, I
don't see an easy way to re-merge the two packages and we have to
take the hard decision to choose either the one or the other.

Cheers
	Volker
