(See the "Building" section)

What do you mean they require gstreamer package which aren't in the repos? If you do

sudo apt-get build-dep banshee

you should get all the required packages immediately.

EDIT: Either way I'm building a .deb, I'll post it when I'm done. However, it may or may not work in Gutsy, because I'm using Ubuntu Hardy.

Also, read this: http://banshee-project.org/OnePointEx/TrunkOnUbuntu

About the .deb, it seems make segfaulted while running.. =\ I'll see what I can do, but no guarantees.

Thanks, compiling now.

Wow, it's really nice, even for a preview/alpha. I love the Last.fm integration. This'll replace Exaile for me, for sure. Only problem is, it's now crashed X twice for me.

your deb doesnt work, it tells me that dependency is not satisfiable (libc6) but when i try to install it:

mark@Aurora:~$ sudo apt-get install libc6
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libc6 is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
mark@Aurora:~$

also compiling the source requires me to either install or compile some other stuff, so far ive had to install 'monodoc' from apt-get, and then compile mono.addins (google) and ndesk.dbus in order for banshee to not complain, It finally just got done through configure, so i shall see how it works after its done compiling

edit2: i give up, even after install mono-addins and ndesk-dbus it still says those files are missing. whatever.

Hi there,
I have a 2GB iPod shuffle that's not working with Ubuntu
Can you please run me thru step by step (newbie/computer klutz here) on how to get the shuffle to work?
Many thanks!

YES!!! I have been waiting for this release for months now. It will be so nice to finally have a play queue in banshee. I'm compiling now

Wow, that seems pretty far fetched to me. Although I said "awesome", there was an equal chance that I had either used it or was commenting on the screenshot.

Nice job to start a flamewar.
