remember that for the time being, elisa is still in universe, and not in main. that's why I also stated that for gutsy, we'll have some packages update available in the UMC repository. We will do our best to have everything up to date in gutsy universe. but only best effort, since there are still many things underway (for ex, lirc 0.8.3 won't be there!) The target for gutsy is to have a derivative level 2 available and testable. and the infrastructure and team ready. The real things will come for gutsy + 1, with elisa in main, and everything in the official pool. along with the UMC being an official derivative level 1, with its own artwork. And by that time, elisa should be mature enough, and the same goes for the other efforts (lirc, elisa config, ...) as I use to say, I won't be more royalist than the king ;-) so we will keep reachable targets. to answer your question, the best would be to have this lirc config plugin for elisa 0.3.x, so that it's packaged and sync'ed in gutsy. but we still have the UMC repository door opened if we are not in time... > > and possibly the mandatory points to avoid editing elisa.conf, that is > > for the media dirs. > > As I told just before the last meeting, Elisa now supports xdg-user-dirs > which is implemented in Gustsy.

That and possibly some autodetection of media on the disk (optional).
