Bug#469397: ITP: xbmc -- XBox Media Center Linux Port



Just thought I mention what needs to be done before xbmc can even be 
considered for upload to Debian (and just about any distro for that matter).

So far, I've encountered two issues that need to be resolved before xbmc can 
be uploaded.

1. xbmc needs to use system libraries instead of the internal libraries 
provided in the source.
2. xbmc needs to follow the requirements of the FHS.

I am currently working on the first issue. For anyone interested, you can 
checkout the changes I've implemented in their SVN repo under the 
external-libraries-support branch. I merge fairly frequently with the 
linuxport branch so that the only difference between the two branches is that 
one supports the use of external libraries.

Any help is welcome. For anyone interested, here's a good place to start
=> http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=XBMC_for_Linux

Here's a place for any feedback on the external libraries support
=> http://xbmc.org/trac/ticket/5416
