Bug Description

Binary package hint: moodbar

The new Exaile source package introduces a new plugin that depends on moodbar (See Bug #420019). Moodbar has been removed from the archive though (See: Bug #316262 and Bug #388915). Despite the lateness of this request, I feel that this doesn't pose a risk. Moodbar is still present in Debian and if you read the removal report linked above you'll see that it wasn't removed due to any technical reason. It was removed due to the fact that at the time it was only useful for Amarok 1.4's moodbar plugin and we moved to Amarok 2.0 which didn't port the plugin.

Proposed changes:

 moodbar (0.1.2-2ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
 .
   * Re-add to Ubuntu as it is a dependency of exaile-plugins-moodbar.
   * debian/control:
    - Drop Recommends/Enchances on Amarok as it doesn't have
      a moodbar plugin anymore.
    - Drop Recommends on gstreamer0.10-plugins-really-bad
      as it no longer exists.
    - Add homepage field.
    - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3
   * debian/dirs: Don't install empty usr/sbin/ dir.
   * debian/copyright: point to GPL-2 not versionless sym-link.
   * debian/rules: Don't ignore error messages in clean target.
   * Add debian/README.source explaining dpatch.

Attached is a diff.gz for the proposed upload as well as a successful build log.

I have built the package and can confirm that it works as expected with the exaile moodbar plugin.

This would also resolve the only bug listed in Launchpad for moodbar (Bug #232539) as Recommends are now installed by default. The issue in that bug was that gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly was not installed.

We need it for exaile that is the default media player for Xubuntu, so let's upload it (this should have been acked by Cody a long time ago anyway, since he is responsible for the default apps in Xubuntu).

There is a bashism in debian/patches/01_config_status ('==' instead of '=') though, you should probably fix it before uploading.
Thanks!
