Oh yeah, that's true. But some overlay/phone packages are used on the desktop and thus go into main. And their dependencies have to be in main, and so on. So sometimes we need it, sometimes we don't. I had assumed mediascanner was being used by something else in main (or you wanted to get the mediascanner scope into the desktop). If not, no need for a MIR. Great. :)

The same package is said to be used by mediaplayer-app touch-app in the nearest future. Dependencies: Not all dependencies are in main. Some of them have respective MIR bugs filled, some need action from upstream. The following list states the current status: - grillo - MIR filled in LP: #1116098 - lucene++ - MIR filled in LP: #1217260 - libboost-locale-dev - source boost-defaults is already in main, needs ubuntu-archive bug for promoting Maintenance: It is an Ubuntu upstream project, so we are making sure that it's properly maintained and developed for the required period of time. Quality assurance: The package is extensively tested by unit tests. Integration tests are not present in this source - the unity-scope-mediascanner will provide basic autopilot integration testing.
