[Fsf-friends] Exaile

I just happened to come across Exaile. It is a GTK+ based media player
very similar in functionality to Amarok. I could not find any RPMs for
it though there is a package for Edgy Eft.

Installation from the tarball is nothing but 'make install', but one
can easily run into dependency hell since there is no configure script
to tell you what you need. Make sure you have:
a. python-gstreamer
b. notification-daemon
c. notify-python
d. python-sqlite2
e. python-mutagen
You might need some more, but these are what I noticed.

It is still not as polished as Amarok, but is surely nice if you can
manage to install it.

Cheers,
