Comment 9 for bug 1190146

Hi, Nightingale developer and the guy who maintains the release package of nightingale on launchpad here. First of, we are aware of the lintian errors. Most of them are in our dependencies, which might require a special build configuration for debian, yes. If you have patches to create such a configuration, please don't hesitate to shoot it back to us on github, even if it's a separate build config. The reason why the packages here on lp have different deps than what's in the github repo, is because that's what we were at at the last release, 1.12.1. We'll hopefully be able to get rid of some of the stuff in the deps in the future, but for example debian's taglib is giving us a lot of trouble (same with sqlite).
The github issues that might be of interest to you are
https://github.com/nightingale-media-player/nightingale-deps/issues/18 (as you can see, we've got some imporved eps right in that issue!)
https://github.com/nightingale-media-player/nightingale-deps/issues/17

We'd also appreciate if you'd stop by in our irc channel, #nightingale on irc.mozilla.org, as that'll help work together too, as we're interested in having a debian package! Also, our github branches, especially in the deps repo, might look like a mess to you, and we can help!
