[Bug 1030847] Re: Obsolete rhythmbox plugin needs deleting from the repository

[Micah Gersten]

As this package is Ubuntu specific, it doesn't have a dedicated
maintainer.  If you would like to keep the version up to date with the
version of rhythmbox, we can certainly sponsor those updates for you.
Otherwise, I'd be happy to ACK the removal.  I subscribed  Alexander
Murauer who seems to be the person who originally got it into Ubuntu.
Unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors for now, please resubscribe if sponsoring
is needed.

Title:
  Obsolete rhythmbox plugin needs deleting from the repository

Status in “rhythmbox-radio-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This package is built for rhythmbox v0.1x found in Lucid/Natty.

  This package contains python source code incompatible with GTK3 -
  plugin format itself is the old .rb-plugin naming convention - not as
  the GTK3 format .plugin.

  The author of the plugin has not updated to GTK3 format - as such I
  would recommend you delete this from BOTH oneiric and Precise - and
  all future versions of ubuntu.

  FYI - I've got a ported version of this particular plugin on github
  https://github.com/fossfreedom/radio-browser

  However, I dont recommend that any "third-party" plugins should be
  actually in the repository since they are quickly out-of-date -
  seemingly the package is never maintained from upstream sources.
