Hi robot folks.

I'm getting there. Today I've built the player package and made rpmlint
somewhat happy. There is still stuff left to do, some of the things that
need work:
- have a system wide plugin directory (%{_libdir}/player/plugins seems
reasonable)
- Make sure plugins can be installed in a user's home directory (if
Player can be extended after compilation, still have to check that out),
~/.player/plugins seems reasonable
- Make Player use these directories
- Create sub-packages for example applications/plugins and remove them
from -doc package.
- investigate "funny" Python executables installed in %{_bindir}
- make sure Python executables are packaged into -python subpackage
- do test runs
- push GCC 4.3 and no-rpath patches upstream (will do after package
stabilizes)
- Koji scratch builds

I've uploaded the current state to http://fedorapeople.org/~timn/player
so feel free to grab, test and modify it. If you start working please
let me know to avoid doing work twice.

	Tim
