Banshee Orphanage Spree

Hi all,

As I no longer use banshee it seems pointless to try and maintain such a
large package.  In addition there are several upstream weirdnesses that
drove me nuts (such us distributing libraries privately) that started
causing weird conflicts with other packages.

All-in-all if you use them and care enough to maintain them, I'd really
recommend it.

The packages are:
* banshee
* ipod-sharp
* libipoddevice
* podsleuth

Banshee has a nasty bug in F-8 (which I intend to file) which makes it
provide ndesk-dbus-glib, and it should be possible to upgrade to 1.2.0
for F-8 now (although it's so late in the cycle it may not be worth it).

Don't forget to take the bugs too!

- Nigel
