Andrew:

Upstream ships a debian/ folder, which means we need to repackage the
tarball, which is a shame. I've seen they are making packages in their
PPA, https://launchpad.net/~exaile-devel/+archive, but they are doing
the package as a native package. If we can convince them to switch to a
non-native package, their debian/ folder would be in the diff.gz (as
ours is) and we could use directly their tarball without repackaging.

Could you try to convince them to do that for the next releases? You could mail 
their mailing list (http://groups.google.com/group/exaile-devel) or use the bug 
tracker (launchpad.net/exaile).
Also, could you forward them the manpage from debian/exaile.1?

Thanks!
