Please merge miro 1.0-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

It's out Debian package version 1.0-1. I've put it working with python 2.5 :-)

Change need to change debian/pyversion and debian/rules. It's an easy merge...

It should be an easy merge, yes. I'm in contact with the Debian maintainer, and there's likely to be a 1.0-2 package soon (within a week or so), so it's a better idea to wait for that.

Once that's out, I'll be happy to help you do this merge if you wish. If not, I'll be doing it.

I mentioned in bug #163139 that miro would need a build depends on firefox-dev. I later compiled and ran miro using the latest version of xulrunner found in Debian and noticed that it ran faster with libxul than from building against firefox-dev, and this was without installing python-psyco. I've attached a patch of the only changes that I've made for building miro-1.0-1.

      - Use pyversions rather than hardcoding 2.4
  * New upstream version fixes invalid mime file (LP: #150851, LP: #150674)
  * debian/rules:
    + Remove remaining hardcoded python version numbers;
      use DEB_PYTHON_COMPILE_VERSION everywhere.
  * debian/control:
    + Break the long depends lists into one depends per line for readability
    + Add libxine1-x dependency (LP: #159338)
    + Bump standards version; no changes needed.
  * debian/watch:
    + Add a shiny new watch file.
  * debian/patches/50_honour_xine_driver.patch
    + Make Miro honour the --xine-driver command line option (Debian: #453406)
  * debian/patches/60_xine_extractor_path.patch
  * debian/miro.install
    + Install xine_extractor into /usr/lib/miro rather than /usr/libexec,
      and make Miro look for it there (Debian: #454603, #451980, #452708,
      #452486)

miro (1.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Closes: #449131, #451207).
    + Fixed malformed miro.xml file (Closes: #445871, #443510).
    + Drop several patches which were applied upstream.
  * Add missing libxv-dev build-dependency (Closes: #442832, #443006, #443045).
  * Miro shipped with a menu file since the beginning (Closes: #443211).
    It's currently in the 'Applications/Network/Web News' category.
  * Fix small typo in German translation (Closes: #451333).
  * Cannot reproduce the following bugs with this release. Please
    reopen if you still experience problems:
    + Miro crashes on play (Closes: #443266).
    + Used to work; now segfaults on startup (Closes: #444484).
      Please try removing the ~/.miro directory if the problem persists.
    + Segfault on startup (quicktime related?) (Closes: #444051).
    + Cannot install Miro (Closes: #443045). Unlikely to be a real bug,
      probably stems from mixing packages from stable/unstable.
  * New 'Recommends: libxine1-ffmpeg'.

miro (0.9.9.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Closes: #433752).
     + Democracy Player was renamed to Miro upstream, so we now
       use Provides/Conflicts/Replaces to transition existing installs.
     + Update the package description (and improve it a bit).

       default GNOME proxy, which you can set/enable using gconf-editor.
  * Update debian/copyright.
  * Several improvements inspired by the Ubuntu version of the package:
    + Remove unneeded RPATH from MozillaBrowser.so (using chrpath).
    + debian/menu: Move package into 'Applications/Network/Web News'.
    + Drop shebang from feedparser.py, not needed (and silences lintian).
    + Only suggest python-psyco on [i386 hurd-i386 netbsd-i386 kfreebsd-i386].
  * miro.desktop improvements:
    + Drop 'Encoding=UTF-8', no longer necessary (lintian).
    + Change categories to 'AudioVideo;FileTransfer;News;P2P;TV;Player;'.
  * Cannot reproduc...
