Bug#579859: Is there any progress



Hi,

> I see that there is some progress on the git repository. 

Summary of what I am working on :
* There are some embedded code copy used in Clementine sources and this is not   
allowed by Debian policy [1]. For each of these `cloned` libraries, I must use 
a official Debian package instead.
* Some libs are already packaged in Debian but not all of these.

Issues :
* Some of these embedded libs have been patched by Clementine developers. So I 
can not use directly the Debian package instead and I must ask to maintainers 
if it is possible to apply these patches to there packages. [2]
* Some of these embedded libs need to be packaged in Debian.

Current state :
* I am waiting for review of my sponsor about this situation.

> But, when do you think Clementine should be available in the Squeeze 
> repositories?
For the moment, I have no idea when Clementine package will be available in 
Debian repositories.

I will post a complete recap about each embedded libs issues as soon as 
possible.

Best regards,
Thomas PIERSON
