A comment on the question "Debian/Ubuntu Package Repositories?" in Songbird:

Are you still "working with Ubuntu" on this? – Dennis Heinson, on November 06, 2009 10:10
A comment on the question "Why is there no proper Ubuntu repository?" in Songbird:

A common format would be nice. It is an entirely different question though and does not take the situation in account as it is. Fact: Many people use Ubuntu and many would like a repository RIGHT NOW, and that is before a common format is agreed upon. So if 3rd party devs would like to spread their software, they should create repositories accordingly (and will). – Dennis Heinson, on November 06, 2009 10:08

Why is there no proper Ubuntu repository?
Like presumably many other people I would like to install Songbird on my Ubuntu. I dislike downloading and installing pre-build packages, because they do not offer auto-updates and so on. Instead, I would like a repository that has Songbird in it. However, such a thing does not exist.

There _is_ a Ubuntu Repository with daily builds of Songbird in a PPA (Personal Package Archive). It failed to build last time, so it is pretty useless.

To get larger dissemination of Songbird, please create a repository that has a stable in it for people to try.

Thank you!
