hi André,

took a look at exaile, and some mostly easily fixed issues came up:

* watch: matching pattern \d\.\d\.\d is overly specific, could easily
   miss realistic upstream versions such as 3.4.0.2, 4.1.10, 10.0, or
   anything else that's not exactly 3 single digits separated by dots.
   Something like \d[\d.]* would avoid that.
* watch: Uversion-Mangle is redundant, because the version matching
   pattern cannot hit on any version with alpha|rc|beta in it in the
   first place.

* control: various build-deps have ancient version requirements (as
   in, already met in oldstable).
* control: missing dependency on python3-cairo (xlgui/cover.py:33),
   currently pulled indirectly via python3-gi-cairo so it went
   unnoticed.
* control: adding a dep on python3-setproctitle would be useful for
   the optional import at exaile.py:40.
* control: keeping the dependencies related to the plugins as mere
   suggests is very much on the weak side, given that the plugins do
   ship as an integral part of the binary package. Consider moving
   these to (at least) recommended.

* d/docs is empty? If that's intentional, you might as well remove it.


Please remove the moreinfo tag (please CC me) once you have an
updated package ready.
