I am together with upstream trying to package Clementine Player [1] [2]. A music player and library organizer. Clementine is in large parts based on Amarok 1.4 but ported to Qt4 and doesn't use any KDE libraries. It also can connect to Last.fm for Internet radio.
The problem at hand is that Clementine's is bundled with parts of the Qt extension library (libqxt) [3] and a single application add-on to Qt from Nokia [4]. The question is: do we need to pack those libraries separately? For libqxt a needs-packaging request [5] is open but haven't been touched but since it was added about 1 and a half year ago. I haven't really looked in to it but could probably pack it if necessary. Note that Clementine only bandels with a vary small portion of libqxt and that linking it to an external libqxt would likely significantly increase memory usage. The single application add-on is a small (104 KB source code). It can be build as a shlib and packaged separately, but I see it as unlikely we will see any other package using this add-on in a near future. Is it worth the extra effort to pack this separately? Davis Sansome, a upstream Clementine developer, receives a copy of this message. We have been in touch earlier regarding this.
