Spec URL: http://salimma.fedorapeople.org/for_review/music/vagalume.spec SRPM URL: http://salimma.fedorapeople.org/for_review/music/vagalume-0.5.1-1.fc9.src.rpm Description: **NOTE** vagalume uses GStreamer, so while not usable out-of-the-box without an MP3 decoder, it does not break any Fedora guidelines. Let me know if I should add a README.Fedora stating that users are responsible for finding a way to play MP3 themselves (presumably we could point to the free MP3 codec from Fluendo) Vagalume is a Last.fm client based on Gnome, and specially designed to work in the Maemo platform. Vagalume has the following features: * It plays Last.fm streams using the Last.fm protocol v1.2 * It can play any Last.fm radio: personal, neighbours, loved tracks, or any other arbitrary URL. * It can download free tracks * It implements the Audioscrobbler Realtime Submission Protocol v1.2, specifically: * Now Playing information * Scrobbling of tracks that you listen * Love/Ban ratings * It displays the album cover of the track being played * The user can tag artists, tracks and albums * The user can send recommendations to other users * The user can add tracks to their playlist
Does this do anything useful when you don't have the codecs? Because, say, amarok can do a lot of that while it's playing ogg tracks.
Could potentially be useful if/when Last.fm serves out files in other formats. Otherwise -- well, it can play any arbitrary lastfm URL, so if someone reimplements the protocol and serves out Ogg Vorbis tracks, Vagalume should handle it just fine.
Updated to 0.6; can now update status message. Will submit to Livna if the package is not considered proper for Fedora. Spec URL: http://salimma.fedorapeople.org/for_review/music/vagalume.spec SRPM URL: http://salimma.fedorapeople.org/for_review/music/vagalume-0.6-1.fc9.src.rpm

I've asked Spot and he agrees with Jason that since this package is not usable without non-free stuff, its not ok for Fedora. Closing as can't fix. Salimm, Can you add a comment to the livna review that the review should continue there, I don't have the bug number handy.
