[Bug 1095441] [NEW] Please backport performous 0.7.0-1ubuntu1 (universe) from raring

[Daniel Kessel]

Public bug reported:

Please backport performous 0.7.0-1ubuntu1 (universe) from raring to
precise, quantal.

Reason for the backport:
========================
I mainly care about the new "duet support" feature. But the bug fixes sound nice too.
Release notes from http://performous.org/blog:

Gameplay

Full duet support! (SingStar XML, UltraStar TXT and Frets on Fire formats)
High-pitched soprano voice is now detected properly (thanks for the bug report!)

Graphics and performance

Modern rendering pipeline
OpenGL 1.x is gone for good, OpenGL 2.1 or better required
Improved graphics quality
Stereo3D mode
Anaglyph glasses, top/bottom, experimental HDMI 1.4 support
Requires OpenGL 3.3 or better
Optimizations everywhere to make it run even faster (port to Android, anyone?)
Asynchronous texture loading
Makes menus run faster and smoother
Black rectangles may sometimes appear during loading
Dance mode still sucks (HELP WANTED!)

Controllers

Instrument type configuration via settings menu
More USB devices autodetected (controllers.xml)
MIDI drum mapping is now configurable (mididrums.xml)

Miscellaneous
Improved webcam support and compatibility

Configurable legacy charset (for non-UTF-8 songs)
Tools (ss_extract and friends) cleaned up and can now be cross-compiled for Windows
Massive amounts of small fixes, improvements and code cleanup everywhere

Translations

Asturian, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian,
Italian, Japanese, Persian, Polish, Spanish and Swedish

Testing:

$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s raring -d precise performous
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s raring -d quantal performous
