Coherence DLNA/UPnP client not showing on plugins list

[orzeh]

After install DLNA should be accesible but it does not, plugin (Coherence DLNA/UPnP) is not listed anywhere in Totem.

WORKAROUND:
Use the coherence and totem packages from PPA: ppa:rye/lp880076 as this will not be fixed in upstream packages. The GNOME project is migrating to Grilo project for UPnP but no Totem integration is available for now.

Patch for current coherence-0.6.6.2

[Roman Yepishev (rye)]

And here's the patch for current totem-3.0.1-0ubuntu21

The totem plugin sources had to be tweaked a bit as well.

Please note that coherence patch is sufficient to be used by totem, I haven't checked the other clients yet (I recall rhythmbox could use coherence too).

As the plugin was disabled in bug 827382, it needs to be re-enabled in debian/totem-plugins-extra.install too.

The packages are being built in ppa:rye/lp880076 and by default they will not replace the existing versions. You will need to install these manually, see https://launchpad.net/~rye/+archive/lp880076 for the specific version strings.

OTOH the plugin was dropped by Totem upstream and since the Coherence upstream is unactive (last change is around a year ago) there is a little chance the patches can end up being in Debian or Ubuntu.

This will definitely be a PPA-only "fix" since GNOME is switching to Grilo framework which will handle UPnP as well.
