Title:
Rio Karma support disabled until libkarma can enter main
Status in banshee package in Ubuntu:

Status in libkarma package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: banshee
During the MIR for banshee (bug 607291), it came up that libkarma is
sort of a mess:
"""
* lintian messages:

* A watch file (and homepage setting) that 404s
* No symbols file or -V arg to dh_makeshlibs
* Bug 296737 seems bad
* New upstream version available but unpackaged for 3 and a half
years
* A bad memcpy and strncat for amd64:
In file included from /usr/include/string.h:642:0,
from karmaLan.c:18:
In function ‘memcpy’,
inlined from ‘lk_karmaLan_get_protocol_version’ at karmaLan.c:198:11:
/usr/include/bits/string3.h:52:3: warning: call to __builtin___memcpy_chk
will always overflow destination buffer
* Lots of errors like the following representative sample:
properties.c:350:18: warning: ignoring return value of ‘write’, declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
properties.c:296:9: warning: ignoring return value of ‘read’, declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
mp3.c:206:18: warning: ignoring return value of ‘fread’, declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
riocp.c:652:22: warning: ignoring return value of ‘scanf’, declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
karma.c:49:5: warning: ISO C90 forbids specifying subobject to initialize
* And to top it off, upstream no longer has a working Karma and is looking
for a new maintainer, so no new fixes from that direction.
""
So I've disabled libkarma support in banshee so that it can enter
main. When these issues are fixed, we should refile a MIR for
libkarma and re-enable support for it.
